About

Hi my name is Kiesha Xiao and I'm going to be a rising senior at KIPP King Collegiate High School. My favorite color is blue and I like to watch korean dramas and Kpop music. This Summer Immersion Program has allowed me to broaden my choices, helped me decide my future goals and future desires. I never knew how to code before and because of this amazing opportunity here at PIXAR, it made me realize my passion for coding.

Hi my name is Julia Mendoza I was born at the Philippines. When I was 6 my mom took me and my two brothers here in America to have a better education and I have been living here ever since. Originally, I wanted to be a pediatrician because I love children and would want them to help them, but I wasnt entirely sure if that's what I actually want to do in the future. I joined Girls Who Code in orderto explore and expand my options. When I first joined this program, I was nervous because I didn't know how to code. However, now I really enjoy how to code because it is very challenging for me. I do not regret joining Girls Who Code.
