Maxey is a coding mentor at Made with Code, her goal is to teach girls to code using challenges that capture their imagination. Maxey encourages girls to code and break down those technology barriers: “If you like Made with Code projects, try JavaScript or something else that’s similar. Keep diving in. Don’t stop yet.”

Agencies Swift, 72andSunny and Nexus supported the LED dress initiative, including the social media, website and Block.ly coding app.
