In our first episode, we sat down with software developer, Beck Cronin-Dixon, of Eventbrite. We discuss Beck’s journey into software development, her arrival into the United States, her passion for giving back to her community through active mentorship, and words of wisdom for other developers embarking on this career. 

While carving out a career in software development can be daunting scary, Beck found through intentional networking and seeking out mentors who recognized her desire to grow and be successful as a software developer, the possibilities she was embarking on were endless. She recognized early on her networking that the importance of building relationships and actually talking with people were critical. No one can stay in the corner and expect the results they want.
