Thank you. Well, no, statistics show, I mean, women are slower to adopt and adapt to AI and implementing that in their daily lives, even just today with chat GPT and the incredible tools that exist. And so, you know, I think what, um, just again, to kind of go back to our community, 11,080% identify as people of color. 40% would qualify for free and reduced lunch programs.

Also another 70% of our alumni are over 18. So yes, our programs kind of reach this young teenage high school student before they've decided what they want to be in the world or what doors they think might be open or closed to them. And I think that is a huge part of why this is so impactful because we reach them at such a young age. But we're 10 years into this. So we have scholars that are

And I think that is a huge part of why this is so impactful because we reach them at such a young age. But we're 10 years into this. So we have scholars that are

into their mid to late 20s. And they are in the workplace and they are deeply still connected to us. And that is the sort of next evolution of the role that we play at Code with Klossy is how we continue to support them along the pipeline so that we keep them in these spaces. Because that is critical as well. And you know this.

I mean, there's an enormous amount of sort of, I think, drop off and of women, you know, in that sort of broken rung era of sort of that first promotion to management. And so how to continue to support. our scholars and our community in the spaces that they go on to as leaders.

And it's far just beyond, you know, the role that we play initially is sort of introducing them to computer science skills. We have AI machine learning, we have web dev, mobile app development, and data science. We take our curriculum very seriously. We build custom curricula. We train hundreds of teachers around the world. We have like a very robust program in how we run our operation.

And I'm so proud of that. But what we're doing now is really thinking about, you know, thousands of young women who are our alumni, who we're growing with as they're growing and how to continue to sort of equip them with sort of, 21st century leadership skills. I don't even like to say like soft skills. It's like... No, but it's leadership skills.

Thank you. I think it's just innately just the way that I think and the kind of things I care about. It's not some sort of master plan. It all sort of has evolved organically. And it's funny, I started angel investing long before it was like a trendy thing to do. You know, again, this sort of

I think like you, you know, you and I, I think very much share this sort of early entrepreneurial bug of like always thinking about how to problem solve in a sustainable way. And to me, that's what entrepreneurship is. It's like, how can I identify a problem and build a sustainable solution that can be like… a viable business and better for the planet.

And I think that's the framework that I've always looked at the kind of companies I want to invest in and companies is not even the people I want to invest in the ideas I want to invest in. And that has always been the framework of what I put money behind. I mean, I think I was 20 years old when I put my first, you know, angel check into, and that was not even like a term that I was aware of.

I just, you know, I, uh, one of the first, um, you know, two women that I wrote a check to was they started this company called Lola, a sort of direct to consumer.
