I’ve had the privilege of speaking at a few events this year. I linked a couple of them below.
I don’t think I can ever tire of encouraging those who wish to break into software development! Several people who’ve listened to these talks have reached out, sharing how they related to my journey, and the resulting motivation they received. When it comes to tech: the more, the merrier !
🎙 ThunderNerds - Empowering Women In Tech
🎙 CodeNewbie - Breaking Into Tech As A Mother

@aritdeveloper @saronyitbarek I am a 35 year old father and could relate with @aritdeveloper so much. This podcast was very refreshing and put a fire in my butt to not give up and continue pursuing this career. Thank you!18:32 PM - 21 Jun 2021
Kelsi Flatland (she/her)@msflatlandIn particular, I appreciated @aritdeveloper 's talk and advice on getting started in open source projects. Her specific suggestions for your first contribution are super helpful, such as documenting your local setup and then updating the installation docs for clarity!19:01 PM - 10 Jun 2021
It's A Wrap!
Whew! We wrapped Cycle 2 of my nonprofit Our Time For Tech up at the end of May. I am so proud of our 7 fellows and their accomplishments!
Our CodeCollab fellows completed the MVP of their ShiftWork app, and demoed it for the tech community (password: XJE*PnA9).
Our BetterPrep fellows landed their first-ever dev jobs 🎉 or built skills and fortitude to better weather their job searches.
I’m currently retro-ing the Cycle 2 experience and using what I learn to plan for 2022. If you know anyone that may be interested in what we offer, invite them to join the Arit Developer newsletter so they can stay updated on future programs.
