Tech Is One of the Greatest Wealth Engines of Our Time w/ Alexandra Holiens. Ada Developers Academy
Taking chances and getting uncomfortable is how Alexandra Holien became the VP of Revenue & Strategy and Deputy Director of Ada Developers Academy. Ada is on a mission to change the face of tech. The non-profit is an entirely cost-free coding school for underrepresented communities. Alex works closely with the CEO and the Ada team to develop growth and impact strategies that improve the tech industry at large. Alexandra’s vision for the future? Uninterrupted Black abundance and joy. In our conversation for the Women’s Liberation Summit, we explored the following:
1) Financial wealth is liberation that keeps paying it forward
2) With the right knowledge and skills you can have the agency to work for companies that value you
3) Diversity without equity is oppression
4) The many opportunities available in tech
5) Not allowing your gratitude to be at the table interfere with the worth you bring to the table
6) So much more!
