Congratulations to our very own Sioux Young who has just been hired full-time by Rush Street Interactive as a Customer Service Agent! Sioux was introduced to Hopeworks last year through a referral from a friend, while searching for coding bootcamps. Her friend assured her that Hopeworks would be a more valuable option for long term success.
Sioux says Hopeworks has taught her a multitude of things, with the most important for her being office management skills. Since her new role will include mostly independent work, Sioux appreciates learning how to work productively both alone and in larger groups of people.
“My dreams for the future are to further my education and break into the cybersecurity industry because there are so many opportunities! With the skills that I’ve attained here at Hopeworks, I’m excited to see all of those dreams come true.”
