A note from Grant

Ali Spittel started down the computer science major route in college before deciding it wasn’t quite right for her. But she would return to coding in her first job as a means of automating some of her work and realizing that she really enjoyed it.

From there, Ali Spittel, has steadily built a career in tech as a software engineer, developer advocate, and instructor for the likes of Amazon, General Assembly and her own venture, WeLearnCode. In addition to all of her work coding and teaching people to code, Ali is the co-star of the popular Ladybug Podcast with Kelly Vaughn, Sidney Buckner and Emma Bostian. If you’ve ever wanted to get into coding and aren’t quite sure where to begin, be sure to learn how Ali built a career in coding without a comp sci degree.
