Introducing G|Code’s Change Makers: Nicole Bazile
In February 2020, the G|Code team launched Intro to G|Code, a 12 week program designed for young women of color to uncover interest and aptitude in tech within a supportive, inclusive, and safe environment. The Intro to G|Code Change Makers have shown us their grit, scrappiness, and creativity, as well as their commitment to community and personal growth. We are beyond proud of our Change Makers who will graduate in just a few days, and are thrilled to celebrate their achievements and share some of their stories.
Today, we celebrate Nicole Bazile! Nicole is from Boston, MA, and has blown us away with her enthusiasm, positive energy, and vulnerability. Learn more about her journey below.
