Episode notes

I think a lot of people ask, when they hear that I go to the liberal arts school and then I'm in tech, they're like, what do tech people not know? And I'm like, how to write? No one knows how to write. But I think I had to take an entire year of writing classes to just graduate. If you ever want to continue coding, don't go into leadership, because all you're going to do is sit in meetings and write papers. It's a completely different muscle.

In this episode of the State of Developer Education podcast, Jon speaks with Julie Hubschman, Senior Product Manager of Developer Experience at DriveWealth, the pioneer of fractional equities and embedded investing, a visionary technology company empowering more than 100 partners around the world to engage their customers. Prior to this, she was the Developer Relations Lead at Gusto, Partnerships Engineer at Pinterest, and a Software Engineer at Microsoft!

Join them as they discuss the potential ramifications and risks of building certain code; why developing skills in other areas of education can help you as a developer; and how hackathons can a useful way to build relationships with companies and other developers. They also discuss some of the issues with spamming and how to best overcome them.
