Transforming Lives Through Data Empowerment
At Makaia, we believe education has the power to open doors and change destinies. Our Data Analytics Bootcamp is more than just technical training—it’s a catalyst for personal and professional growth, empowering individuals to reach their full potential.
Today, we share the story of Elena Marcela Quevedo Mejía, a biological engineer who saw in our Bootcamp the opportunity to transition into a new career. After completing the program, she secured her first job in the tech industry as a data analyst.
More Than a Course: A Professional Revolution
When Elena joined the Data 2 cohort, she didn’t just learn SQL databases, Python, or how to build interactive dashboards in Power BI—she discovered the power of data as a tool for making smarter decisions and driving meaningful impact. Equipped with these skills, she now thrives as a data analyst; uncovering valuable insights that help businesses make smarter, data-driven decisions and operate more efficiently.
Beyond Technical Skills: A Holistic Approach
Our Data Analytics Bootcamp is about more than just coding—we take a comprehensive approach, integrating employability tools and emotional well-being support to ensure holistic growth.
Through the program, Elena refined her resume, learned how to stand out in job interviews, and built the confidence to navigate the job market successfully. She also benefited from psychosocial support, gaining tools to manage stress, optimize her time, and collaborate effectively with confidence and empathy.
The True Impact of Opportunity
Today, Elena doesn’t just have a stronger professional profile—she has a growth mindset ready to take on any challenge. Her journey proves that when knowledge, support, and opportunity come together, true transformation happens.
