Thanks to the knowledge McKenna’s gained in SheCodes, she’s been able to snag a new job as a web strategist and designer at Pivotal Health Solutions! Bulking up her skill set has created more opportunities for her. 🙌
“Since I started SheCodes, I was offered my new job as a web strategist and designer for PHS. I’m loving the work I do and the people I work with! SheCodes allowed me to advance and has opened more career opportunities for me.”
Her daily tasks for her job include: designing marketing collateral, maintaining web page information, creating email communications, and interpreting customer trends to maximize the company’s marketing efforts. Any given day she can be updating web page information, designing web banners, printing materials, or doing other branding projects. Her tasks definitely run the gamut. 😄She works with the sales team, engineers, and the company’s customers. Her coding knowledge has helped improve her interdepartmental communication for sure.
Thanks to her coding knowledge, she’s been able to transition to a role that she enjoys more. And has received a pay raise, as well 😉
“I was a designer before but my role was doing more sales, customer service, and estimating projects. Design and marketing are what I really love doing and learning to code just allowed me to do more of it. (Side whisper: a bump in pay didn’t hurt either).”
We know that McKenna will continue to put her coding knowledge to great use! In her coding future, she’d like to complete some freelance projects and deepen her knowledge in
SheCodes Responsive.
“I already signed up for SheCodes Responsive. I’m looking forward to that class and then potentially working on some freelance projects later on.”
