ANTHONY PENA

Florida International University

"The support that CodePath is able to give students is invaluable. Through their guidance, I found the education and career path I want to pursue in computer science. During the program, I built an award-winning mobile application, secured technical internships at Meta (formerly known as Facebook), Amazon and other high growth tech companies. SXSW EDU 2022 selected me to speak. Also, in March, I will start working full-time as a software engineer, while I continue to pursue my bachelor’s degree."

"Through the help of CodePath's community of mentors and TAs, I was able to continue improving upon my skills and even land an internship for the Summer. I recommend CodePath for anyone who is seeking knowledge on a specific field like improving your technical interview skills, you will gain valuable skills and will come out with more confidence after taking a CodePath course."
