Hey everyone!

First things first, I hope all is well with everyone here! Hello to all who has been here a while and hello to all new faces who have recently joined this community like myself (a newbie) :).

My name is Destiny and I'm new to coding. I am changing my career field from working as a city employee for Department of Education and taking initiative to complete a program where I can learn to become a software engineer.

I am currently enrolled as a student and let me tell you... my first week of class was... INTENSE. It's a lot of information to process, but I'm rocking it out and enjoying it!

One thing I can say that I've learned since starting my program is to know when to take a break, come back, and try again, or ask for help from instructors/peers!

I find it amazing how sometimes we can easily overthink what should be in your code and end up getting stuck. Yet, the whole time its something so simply put lol.

I look forward to learning from everyone here!
