"I believe, if we continue down the path we're currently on, yes, we can teach every young person to code. But I also think, that we're going to teach them that coding is something that's learned through memorization and that coding is something where there's one right answer." Zach offers a new perspective.

Zach Latta is the co-founder and executive director of Hack Club, where he works to bring coding clubs to high schools worldwide. Before Hack Club, he built the backend architecture for Yo – an app with more than 3 million users. Before that he helped launch and grow a game to over 1 million users, reaching #1 in the games category on the App Store.
