Nikema

prophen
Sacramento, CA

My work is about creating opportunities for technologists like myself who are just getting started in their tech careers.

I recognize from experience the extra effort it takes to get a great start when you are dealing with financial hardships and a number of non-negotiable adult responsibilities.

When you sponsor me, you allow me the mental space to do my work to the best of my ability.

Thank you ❤️

@prophen

Allows me to work with my brain, with my community, without worrying about survival. I have goals to continue my learning and professional development while supporting my family as the primary caregiver.
