We empower hackers. 2022 Season Kickoff
Hey, there! I’m Swift. 👋 CEO & Co-Founder of Major
League Hacking (MLH). Aspiring lawyer who became a developer instead. Empowering technologists for 10 years now.
We empower hackers.
I wanted to be a lawyer before my first hackathon.
Turns out that I’m a much better hacker.
Back then I used to think my story was unique.
It ends up, my story wasn’t unique at all.
500,000 MLH Community Members
Meet Ebtesam Al Haque. Joined Community: HackDSC, 2020
There was a feeling from her classmates that women didn’t
belong in tech.
Ebtesam learned so much at her first hackathon and felt
so welcome.
MLH hackathons helped boost my confidence and allowed me to
set bigger goals for myself. Ebtesam Al Haque George Mason University “
COVID changed everything.
COVID changed everything. nothing!
& Weekly Virtual Hackathons & Workshops Year-Round MLH will be
back on campus this Fall (where it’s safe)
No matter where you’re hacking from, you’re a part of
the MLH Community.

Meet Emily Nguyen. Joined Community: SB Hacks, 2018
Emily expected to hack by herself. She couldn’t have been
more wrong.
It was the technology community that helped break me out
of my shell and encouraged me to be myself. Emily Nguyen UC San Diego “
Emily found the skills and the confidence she needed to
launch her career.

Meet Jarrel Thomas. Joined Community: Local Hack Day, 2018
MLH helped me understand that coding wasn't just for coders,
but for those with a hunger for innovation and the heart to make a difference. Jarrel Thomas UC Riverside “
Jarrel found a job at shop, but never let go
of his passion for the hacker community.
Following his dreams led Jarrel to land a job at
Twilio as a support engineer.
Local Hack Day is a worldwide celebration of hacking.
