She first learned to program in a series of dingy basements, where smart, weird dudes taught her Clojure, Python, and the Linux command line. She later went on to polish her web dev skills at Epicodus bootcamp, and to work at the molecular genomics lab at OHSU, using cutting-edge AI to identify variants in DNA and help diagnose rare genetic diseases. Alma holds a Master's of Science in Systems Science from Portland State University, where she studies cybernetics, information theory, networks, chaos, and complexity in nonlinear systems. She is interested in the use of data and technology to promote social justice and climate activism, and believes that accessibility to careers in tech is essential in supporting those goals._________________________________________Contact infoData Stack Academyparham@datastack.academy / <a href="https://datastack.academy" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">datastack.academy</a>/ Reddit: u/datastackacademy
