 Meet June and Everlyne, two upcoming UI/UX designers

In our ongoing effort to create more techies, this year we partnered again with DirectEd where our 2024 high school grads were enrolled for a coding bootcamp program. This transformative program aimed to equip students with hands-on training in web development, UI/UX design, and startup ideation, giving them experience in creating websites and designing user-friendly products while providing a solid foundation for future careers and entrepreneurship.

Two bright young girls, June and Evelyne, were among the successful candidates to complete the first two phases of the program. They stood out as exceptional participants, showcasing not only technical skills in coding and design but also their creativity and a strong problem-solving mindset. 

Everlyne demonstrated a strong work ethic and excellent time management skills. She designed and launched a startup website, Smart Study Circle, while staying on top of her coursework. She overcame challenges with layout design and color balance, showing dedication and thoughtful reflection on her learning process.

 “Building Smart Study Circle while balancing coursework taught me discipline and creativity. Every design challenge helped me grow.” Says Evelyne.

June built a strong foundation in front-end development and UI design. Her portfolio project showed her ability to apply what she learned. She overcame challenges with Git and responsive layouts, showing great problem-solving skills, a positive attitude, and adaptability.

“Tackling Git and responsive design taught me to adapt quickly and stay positive. I’m proud of the progress I’ve made.” Says June.

Through this partnership, DirectEd and NRCF continue to prepare students for real-world tech challenges, with June and Evelyne highlighting the incredible potential of young girls when given access to the right resources and support.
