"My cohort members have become friends and constant inspiration – they're passionate, creative, and endlessly supportive. They've encouraged me to push myself and grow in ways I hadn't expected. Michelle Glauser, our program Founder and CEO, is warm and attentive, and her focus on constructive feedback is something I know will have a lasting impact on me."

"For those of you who don't know, Techtonica is a software engineering program that helps women and non-binary adults overcome barriers into the tech industry! After many rounds of interviews, evaluations, and 5 months of intensive technical training, I'm excited to say that I am a Full Stack Software Engineer specializing in the PERN stack! To kick off the week of graduation, I just wanted to make a super special shoutout to the Techtonica staff!"
