Meet #CSTAEquityFellow Omar Shepherd, a project specialist in computer science with the San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools. Read his profile now on The Voice: ow.ly/pTmi50W3GNC
As a Girls Who Code ambassador, he’s introduced more than a hundred educators to the Girls Who Code club. These efforts support the development of a robust community of female students engaged with and excited to pursue computer science and other tech careers. Omar notes, “Educators who initially hesitated to engage in programming were inspired by the students' enthusiasm and the community's involvement, leading them to join the clubs in subsequent years.”
