Chad Haering

Hello everyone, my name is Chad Haering and I am a former student at CNM and am currently working as a UI/UX intern at CNM.

Starting at CNM only a few months after the COVID-19 pandemic changed everything was a real shock fro me. I had spent sometime studying physics at UNM and was used to the in-person social aspect of college. I initially joined Coffee into Coders because I felt as I was missing out on that social aspect the typically comes with college. As the club grew in terms of membership and goals it became a real highlight during my time here at CNM. Being apart of the club has helped build friendships with others in the club and gave me the chance for networking opportunities that have helped me get to the point I am at today.

This club is a fantastic place to develop meaningful relationships with your peers, learn about all the different aspects of computer programming, and to establish connections with professional developers in and around ABQ. Joining the club was the best thing I did during my time at CNM and I hope to see many new faces in our meetings soon!
