DREW BLINCOE

Fullstack Developer at SIGMA Equipment, Inc.

“The most appealing thing for me about a coding bootcamp was that it was not a 4-year degree, it was hands on, and it was relatively short. As well as the fact that my G.I. Bill fully covered it.” That’s right. Many veterans, including Drew, are able to get financial help for our programs through the G.I. Bill.

Drew explained that Eleven Fifty provided so many things like connections, friends, and the necessary skills to pursue a career that changed his life.
