Christian Baker, Alumni of the Month, February 2020

Christian Baker served in the Navy as a Nuclear Reactor Operator for nine years. After his time in the military, he was looking for an effective coding program with great job placement rates. He applied and joined the India cohort in 2019.  Before coming to Code Platoon, Christian received his B.A. in Electronic Systems Engineering Technology at Thomas Edison State University in 2018.

Christian participated in the internship program and was placed at Echo Global Logistics. He went on to work fulltime for Echo as a software engineer. Christian explains how the Code Platoon program has been “challenging and rewarding” and share how “you won’t find a better opportunity anywhere else.”

Christian stays connected to Code Platoon and our effort to reach out and impact the veteran community. He will work for the new Code Platoon Student Veterans Association chapter as the Director of Marketing and Communications.

Congratulations Christian on all your accomplishments and being Code Platoon’s Alumni of the Month!
