Ok I think I'm all set to get started next week, stopped by at the room yesterday, got a key to Omni door, figured out Sudo Room phone number so ppl can call to get in (and I don't need to provide my prone number on the internet😅) BTW it's 510 844 0014

I talked to Jake about using some laptops available in case ppl don't have computers. I'll be responsible for putting them back in the end of the night.

If anyone can add the event to the calendar that would be great. If it's on github I can do it myself.

The Sudo Room, a creative community and hackerspace at Omni Commons, invites all women/nb people for “Coding Owls - A WNB Coding Night”: bring your computer and a coding project and have fun! We can help each other if you have coding related questions/bugs or just keep company while hacking! If you are a beginner, we can help you get started (even if you’ve never coded before!). And if you're an intermediate programmer looking for a challenge, we can help you find problems to work on. No computer? No problem: we can provide one for the night. Coders of all abilities are welcome! All coding languages are welcome! Bringing a WNB friend is highly recommended. Coding is more fun with friends! Join in person if you’re in Oakland or online anywhere else in the world!


Your host: Juliana A. (pronouns she/her) is originally from Brazil, has been living in US for 10 years and has been working as a software engineer since 2020, after finishing a software engineering bootcamp for women/nb people only. She has worked with Ruby on Rails, Python, SQL, JavaScript, React, Typescript.

So, wrapping up the discussion we had tonight:

- I'll stop by at Omni next Tuesday Hardware night to get to know the space/ set logistics
- I proposed to have the WNB coding night on Mondays
- If all good maybe we can have the first one on May 16th?

Hey, that's my first email to the group👋 I sent the same msg below to `info@sudoroom.org` and got some answers from Jake and Andrew, who told me to post here. So here it goes:

---------------------------------------
Hey, this is Juliana, a bit about myself, I'm originally from Brazil, have been living in Oakland for 10 yrs, and in the last 3 ones I got more involved in the tech world. In 2019 I joined a software eng bootcamp and since 2020 I've been working as a software engineer. I never imagined I was going to work in tech one day, much less be a software engineer. Having a non-tech background and being a person from several underrepresented groups in tech make it hard to imagine that's even a possibility.

Anyways, it's because of that that I've been trying to volunteer more and more to help the community to conquer what I got, and that's where Sudo Rooms gets in. I've heard about Sudo Room maybe 3 years ago but never had the opportunity to be part of an event (cause pandemic..). I would love to help organize some kind of event with women/nb only and have a "coding night", where we can help each other in coding projects or even help ppl to learn how to code. I see you folks have a JS night, so it would prob be something similar.

I emphasize the women/nb only because this is a real barrier in tech, I studied in a women/nb only bootcamp and that totally made a difference. Even when men are allies and empathize with beginners, It's all about seeing that other non-men can do that and feel empowered by that.

About my skills, I'm still Level I but have been working with Ruby on Rails, Python, SQL, React, Typescript. I'm full stack although I prefer backend :) So far I've volunteered/attended events from Techtonica, Women who Code, Wnb.rb, Ruby for Good, Lesbians who Tech, PyLadies, etc.

Let me know if this is something Sudo Room would be interested in hosting!
