About the Author

Mara Lecocq is an entrepreneur with a mission to empower girls and women through initiatives that bring together creativity and technology. Formerly a creative director in advertising and technology, Mara was one of the only female leaders in her field to create digital products and campaigns for brands like Nike, Starbucks and Verizon.

Realizing that ambition starts young—studies showing that stereotypes have an impact on children’s aspirations before the age of 6—Mara decided to found Secret Code. It’s a customizable children’s media company that makes girls see themselves as heroes of powerful industries, with stories customized to their name and their appearance. Mara won a grant by Sophia Amoruso’s Girlboss Foundation and a spot at the startup pitch competition Project Entrepreneur, by the Rent The Runway Foundation.

Rox’s Secret Code is their first published book. Mara wants to empower the next generation of diverse tech leaders by making coding and robotics fun and aspirational for girls of all ethnicities in their formative years—with an inspiring story and its coding game to get children’s paths to fulfilling futures started right away.
