Amelia Garvin is a Vancouver based multidisciplinary artist that works in writing, visual and sculptural mediums. Last year, she won an Impact Scholarship for RED Academy’s Web Development Program. Now she’s working to expand her creative outlets to include code, with the ultimate goal of facilitating technology education in Vancouver, with a particular focus on women’s education

“My goal is to be a future mentor for those interested in pursuing a career in technology who may not feel they could, like I did,” says Amelia. “Delving into an industry that is constantly changing and innovating is so exciting. I am ready to make a change in myself and others.”

At RED Academy, classes are kept small and agile so that instructors can adapt each lesson to the current climate of the industry at that time. If they hear that the market is calling for more knowledge of Javascript, they get their students more Javascript. In combination with an Impact Scholarship, students will leave RED Academy with exactly the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in Vancouver’s tech industry, whether it is at an existing agency or a start-up of their own.

There are two ways to submit your application, including creating a short YouTube video.
