Girls Code MK

My background is Business Administration. I have always worked as PA, Office Manager, and for a few years I also run my own business. For the past 5 years, I worked in a technological start-up and Ihad the chance to work closely with the dev team. Thanks to that I developed a genuine interest in software development. While working there, I also came in contact with an Agile approach to building software and found it fascinating, so I decided to become a software developer. At first, I started learning through websites like freecodecamp and codecademy, then I found a meet-up in Milton Keynes called GirlsCode and started to get actively involved in organizing coding events and workshops.

Then I found out about bootcamps to learn how to code. After some months of reflection and more self-learning, I made the decision to apply to Makers Academy Coding Bootcamp in London, where I recently graduated as software developer, and got my first job as developer 4 months ago.

I am here to learn and to inspire others... especially other women...
