Q: How did StrideLabs help you get to where you are today?
StrideLabs provided me the necessary hands on and fundamental training to prepare me to be in my current Salesforce Admin position. Having the ability to do a full implementation taught me everything I needed to know to navigate and be confident in the platform. My project manager and volunteer coach prepared me for my dream position and I absolutely cannot thank them enough. I wouldn’t be here without StrideLabs and I’m forever grateful for their program.
Q:Can you imagine yourself giving back to others trying to break into the tech industry?
Yes, I enjoy helping others and paying it forward. It’s hard landing your first role, especially in tech and as a woman. Everyone just needs someone to take a chance on them, so they can show their eagerness to learn and to get the job done. As I continue to grow in the Salesforce ecosystem, I plan to give back in any way I can.
