Krista Peryer is the president and co-founder of The Geek Foundation, a revamped idea on school that’s accelerating graduates into the technology workforce in just 6 months. Krista was inspired to start the nonprofit, which provides its education at no cost, after running into barriers to get into the industry herself. She was a single mom who’d struggled with poverty and the thought of years in college seemed out of reach. Today she’s partnered with companies like O’Reilly Automotive, Jack Henry and Pitt Technology Group, and she has a vision for taking The Geek Foundation nationwide.
