Episode notes
This week I sat down and chatted with Ernest Holmes, Jaycee Holmes & Tavis Thompson, the co-founders of CodeHouse. CodeHouse is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that focuses on cultivating a strong pipeline between students of color and industry-leading technology companies.
At its core, CodeHouse aims to tackle the diversity gap in technology by providing exposure and resources to enhance students’ technical skills, promoting internship/full-time placement, and elevating the next generation of diverse leaders in technology.
On this episode, we talk about their vision behind CodeHouse, how to successfully gather funding for your business, and their thoughts on the lack of representation in tech!
