Hello & welcome,
I’m shantell b.
Maybe you want to learn more about the fascinating world of tech. Perhaps you enjoy listening to tech and crime. Or maybe you have a child who is amazed by the technology and ready to learn more. Are you ready to embark on a journey of growth, knowledge, and endless possibilities? If so, look no further! I am Shantell B., your go-to online entrepreneur who wears multiple hats with finesse.
My Approach
Vastly unorthodox from most, I, Shantell B, did not come to be as many have on a path of traditional education at a top university. Instead, my journey was shaped by hard work and dedication. Growing up in the inner city of St. Louis, Missouri, where there were few examples of African American women leading in tech. Despite this lack of representation, my dream to be a trailblazer in the tech industry never wavered.
Dream it
One day, I, Shantell B, was hit by a car while walking a delivery. This led to weeks of immobility and daydreaming. Realizing life would change, I delved into technology. Despite lacking formal education, I pursued the dream of becoming a technology resource for all.
Build it
Before helping others, I focused on improving myself. I took online courses like Solo Leaner and Codecademy to prepare for bootcamps. Savvy Coders, a St. Louis bootcamp, taught me front end web development. I also attended Cyber Up, a top cyber security bootcamp, gaining a Comptia Certification. This led me to teach coding to kids in St. Louis with Against Odds Coding.
