Ever wondered how the digital world is actually built? From the apps you tap to the websites you scroll, there’s a creator behind every click.

💡 Join us for a Virtual Career Exploration Session on becoming a Full‑Stack Software Developer.

🗓️ Tuesday, April 28th
🕟 4:00 P.M. (Virtually!)

Tyrell brings ideas to life through code. As a Development Lead he works with a team to design, build, and test software used by people across the globe.

In this session, Tyrell will share his path into software development, what it’s like to guide a development team, and the blend of technical and creative skills needed to turn concepts into real, working technology.

If you’re curious about how things are built, love solving problems, or enjoy creating something from nothing, this session will give you a real look into the world of Full‑Stack Software Development.

And the best part … you don’t need to be a coding expert to start exploring! Just bring your curiosity and a willingness to learn.

If you’re unable to attend the live session, a recording will be available on our website one week after the session.
