SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) June 03, 2017 -- Underground Elephant, an award-winning digital marketing technology company located in downtown San Diego, will participate in mentoring and judging the Codechella competition on June 3 at San Diego City College.
Codechella is a regional coding competition for more than 100 Information and Computer Technology students at both the middle and high school levels. Underground Elephant Senior Dev Ops Engineer Todd Foley will be volunteering as a mentor to advise students on potential coding careers and to help them tackle challenges in developing code for different devices.

“We are always looking for opportunities to mentor and engage the next generation in tech and coding careers,” said Jason Kulpa, CEO of Underground Elephant. “There is incredible potential in these students, encouraging and fostering them while they are young will help to mold their future career paths and ultimately open up greater opportunities to them in the future.”
