Nichole Radman is excited to be the Lead iOS Developer for Seattle App Camp this year after being a Project Team Manager in 2017. Originally from St. Louis, she received her Biomedical Engineering degree and worked in a lab with lasers and eye-tracking camera for 6 years. In 2011, she decided to become a full-time developer and move to Seattle. She worked with several startups, created multiple apps, and completed the iOS and Mac Dev Certification program at UW in 2013.

When Nichole first heard about App Camp, she wanted to help in any way she could as she remembered being disappointed at the lack of coding classes at her all-female high school even though all-male high schools in the area offered them. In high school and college, she built computers, created and maintained many websites for her high school and her college E-Week.

She has always had a strong affinity for combining technology with creativity and loves the interactivity of mobile apps. When not coding, she can be found rocking karaoke, performing in a dancing flash mob, kayaking, building with Lego bricks, or world travel. Some of these may overlap.

She is Certified in Integrated Resource Management (CIRM) certification from the American Production and Inventory Control Society (APICS), received a Bachelors Degree from the College of Arts and Sciences at New York University, a Masters Degree in Secondary Education. In her spare time, she tinkers with computer hardware and software, runs and is an avid reader.

Cathy Wojcik is a Business Teacher at Victor J. Andrew High School in Tinley Park, IL.  She is called the "Mother of Technology" within the building.  Ms. Woj learned Swift three years ago during an intensive summer bootcamp and fell in love with coding.  The idea of taking a crazy language and turning it into something that actually works is so cool to her.  She looks forward to working with students to help instill the passion for coding and a possible career choice.
