Speaker Bio
Ruth Agbaji is the CEO and Nerd-In-Chief of Code Wiz and has a passion for helping kids connect with their inner genius. Through an interactive and project-driven approach, Code Wiz offers kids a wide variety of technology to express their creativity through coding and robotics. Agbaji’s love for coding started when she taught herself to code back in Nigeria. Loving these newly found “powers”, she proceeded to get a Masters in Computer Science from Tufts University and work as a Software Engineer for tech giants like Microsoft and Kronos. Desiring to make a direct impact on the next generation and having a need for flexibility, in 2017, Agbaji quit her day job to open Code Wiz. Her vision was to have a center where kids of all abilities could come and learn about problem-solving through coding and pour their imagination into personalized projects. With her first center a success and a growing number of franchisees, Agbaji is looking to grow Code Wiz into a household brand name in the enrichment education space. In 2021, Code Wiz joined Canadian-based Clear Summit Group as the latest brand in their portfolio.
