A Note from Dr. Emily, Founder
Hi, I'm Dr. Emily, and I'm the founder of the Joy of Coding Academy. As someone with a PhD in Software Engineering and a former professor with over 50 internationally peer-reviewed publications, in my role as Program Director for Computer Science at Drew University, I graduated dozens of confident coders & six figure software developers who went on to amazing careers at industry giants like Amazon & Chase, as well as startups like Turo.
While a professor, I realized that teaching technology is fundamentally different from teaching subjects like math, history, or English. Tech changes. Rapidly. And that fundamentally changes how we teach. At the Joy of Coding, we teach our students to be confident AND adaptable, so that they can have their pick of future-proof careers.
