Beyond a dream to be accepted into a top-tier computer science academy. </p> <p>I chose the start date of July 8th and I’m very excited about this new journey. Almost a year ago I thought I would be returning to grad school and in someway it kinda is but better.</p> <p>For anyone who is in Lambda or is an alumni, please, feel free to follow and send encouraging words. </p> wecoded coding webdev womenwhocode K.J.
