In a talk at the Ford Foundation, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio shared the story of Flatiron alum George Taveras—a Bronx native who dropped out of college to take care of his family and who now works as a software developer at XO Group. We are honored to be a part of George’s story and a part of NYC’s efforts to make technology available to all New Yorkers.
