About the talk
De Wet Blomerus will be sharing his story from when he wanted to change his community development job into something more technical & programming seemed like a good choice, to figuring out that while it's really fun, it was way too hard of a beast to learn, to deciding that people are too valuable and creative to be doing the repetitive jobs & that learning & teaching coding is what he needed to do about it.
About the speaker
De Wet Blomerus runs Together Tech, a Coding Bootcamp for people from underprivileged areas around Cape Town, teaching Ruby & full stack Rails development.
