 Hey!
A LITTLE ABOUT ME

My name is Bashiri Smith.

In just under 12 months & without

a college degree or any work
experience, I received 2 offers for
more than $115,000 for my first job
as a software engineer.

Since then, I have gone on to earn

over $265,000p/y as a software
engineer and I have also founded
my own tech startup. (Interlade)

Throughout my journey to learn how to code, I've found that the

unique information to ACTUALLY land a job is hard to come by
regardless of if you go to college or a coding bootcamp.

My mission is to make it easy for anyone to change their life with

coding!

This guide is for aspiring coders who want to

earn $100k+ as a software engineer ASAP.
