When Devin found Hopeworks, he was in search of two things: financial stability, and a way to display his gifts of empathy, passion, and creativity. He wasn't able to finish his college degree because of the high cost, and he was in dire need of an opportunity to change careers from the service industry.
That was less than a year ago. Since then, Devin has transitioned from a Hopeworks trainee to a Web Intern, and has now been offered a full-time position with Softerware as a Technical Support Rep!
”When I started Hopeworks, I struggled to believe that I could make a better future for myself. Being at Hopeworks quickly changed that. Everyday you're coming into an environment where everyone is doing everything they can to be a resource to you and to let you know they believe in you.
My dream for the future is to be able to spread the knowledge and encouragement Hopeworks was able to give me. I want to show people what is possible when they set their sights on a goal and never give up.”
