VISION 2024 MENTOR OF THE YEAR
INSTRUCTOR OF THE YEAR
KELSEY HUSE
LAUREN LUENSMANN Lauren has been an incredible champion and advocate for Kristy Lavache, a now Code2College alumnus at Texas A&M. This mentorship pair blossomed from simple discussions on what Kristy wanted to do in the future, into building her confidence in technical interviews, and on into Kristy securing an internship at H-E-B - which she boasts is largely in part to her guidance and support from Lauren as her mentor.
Kelsey has been an incredible role model for tons of students who have passed through and completed the Code2College program. She has impacted the lives of countless students, selflessly fives, and has been a dedicated instructor of 3 major Code2College courses. "I'm sure she is one of the reasons that my internship experience went so well," says one student nominator.
