While I haven't spawned a small human, when I saw this I decided it would be a goodie to share because it is rather rad. I kind of wish stuff like this was around when I was a youngster. As of this weekend and for the rest of July iStore has partnered with Think Ahead to offer free coding classes to kids around South Africa. Kids…
My name is Sam, though I'm also known as Tech Girl. I'm an esports host and shoutcaster. I work around the world on rad esports competitions. I've worked on PUBG Europe League, Overwatch Contenders and a bunch of fun Nintendo Europe events. I also create content around tech, gaming and esports. Links to all my various platforms are here on the blog. You can find out more in the about section (you'll also find ways to contact me there). I'm a giant nerd and secretly wish I could be one of the X-Men!
