Local Roots, Local Impact

Code For ME was built in Bath, Maine to give local students a way to learn coding without traveling far or paying expensive fees. We believe the best programs are created by people who know the community and show up for it.

That local energy is what makes Code For ME feel different — a welcoming place to learn, grow, and build confidence.

Meet The Founder

Hi! I'm Harper, the founder of Code For ME- a local coding camp designed for beginner coders. I believe coding is essential to the future. Whether you're building a toaster or designing the next iPhone, code is behind it all.

I first discovered coding back in third grade, dragging colorful blocks across the screen. I instantly fell in love. But once that class ended, I realized how few programming opportunities were available for students like me.

After years of learning computer science through online and in-person courses, I'm now ready to help your child start their coding journey. Thank you for being here — and welcome to Code For ME!

We personalize experiences with custom-made visuals and posters that help concepts stick and make learning feel approachable.
