About this event

Curious about what a career in tech really looks like?

Code Curious is an informal, interactive conversation series where we invite folks across the tech ecosystem to share their stories—how they got started, the paths they’ve taken, and the possibilities they’re excited about next. These sessions go beyond job titles to explore real experiences, emerging technologies, and the tools and skills shaping today’s tech landscape.

Expect honest conversations, practical insights, and space to ask questions—whether you’re just getting started, exploring a pivot, or growing your career in tech.

🎙️ Bonus: Sessions are recorded and shared podcast/vlog-style, so the learning continues even after the event.


Guest: Sara Chipps

This Code Curious session is a chance to ask questions and learn directly from GDI Co-founder Sara Chipps, a longtime leader in the tech industry and advocate for inclusive, welcoming spaces in tech.

As someone who is always looking ahead and deeply focused on our community, especially women and nonbinary adults, Sara will talk not only about her own journey, but also about what’s coming next. She’ll share her perspective on the growing impact AI will have on the future of tech, tech careers, and the opportunities ahead.

Most importantly, Sara will offer a perspective on how women and gender-diverse people can position themselves not just to participate in this shift, but to lead it.

Whether you’re early in your journey or already established in tech, this is an opportunity to gain insight, ask real questions, and walk away with a clearer view of what’s possible.
