Last weekend I had the opportunity to volunteer with ChickTech Charlotte’s first high school workshop. It was really an awesome experience seeing these young ladies planning, designing, and coding their very own websites for the first time. It was a long day and a lot to take in. Even I was dreading having to wake up so early on a Saturday and spending my entire day inside, especially with the weather getting so nice lately. I surprisingly had a great time. Not only did I learn a thing or two about UX/UI design but also I learned about a few resources that would even help me during my own coding journey.
I’ve finally finished enough of my blog to not be completely embarrassed by it! It literally feels like I’ve been working on this FOREVER. For reference, I started it in October and I told myself this blog was a work in progress. This weekend I hit a wall BUT I really wanted to challenge myself to finish what I could to make it presentable.
So I’m newish to coding. I made a complete career 360 and attended a coding bootcamp in January 2017. Shortly after finishing up my bootcamp, I landed my first front-end web developer job. Now I’m currently working as a contractor for a bank and training as a web developer. I still have SOOOO much to learn and will be sharing my experience on this blog!
