I'm thrilled to connect you with another NoCode hero on this episode. Cynthia McGillis (@cynthiamcgillis) is a co-founder at Noco.digital, an online business merging her passion for stickers. And exclusive streetwear fashion. She's also a corporate warrior at Lambda school, a software development bootcamp. What's really interesting about our conversation is how she puts a spotlight on a segment of NoCode - corporate/B2B NoCode heroes - that I believe will drive massive adoption of the trend.
