About the Author
She received her EdD from Teachers College, Columbia University for music education
with an emphasis on assessment.
Jessica is currently employed as the lead software engineer in testing at Bitly, New
York City. She transitioned from a teaching career of 10 years to a technology career
through a balance of freelance work and social media exposure. Jessica's current
work focuses on using Python to develop automated testing tools. She is an ASTQB
certified quality assurance engineer with experience in testing web, mobile, and
backend applications.
In addition to working at Bitly, Jessica remains committed to education and
has founded
http://www.teachcode.org/
, a nonprofit that teaches computer
programming skills to teachers and students in urban or underserved populations
through Python and 2D game programming. This new initiative will give teachers
the support they need through a standards-referenced curriculum, student-engaging
activities, and access to experts in the field of technology.
I would like to thank my students for allowing me to have such
fun teaching them Python and learning from their experiences as
new programmers. I would also like to thank Cathy Kross and
Alice McGowan for being willing to have me in their classes and
school and interrupting their daily lives with my code-teaching
experiments. Finally, I would like to thank my husband, Nick, for
believing in me and helping me through some major writer's block.
He never loses faith in me, and for that, I am eternally grateful.
