I was a construction worker but can't do construction anymore due to an injury. I was laying around recovering trying to figure out what to do. Before construction I was a Photographer and decided to try that again. I found Photoshop and along with it the Creative Cloud. Along with CC came Muse and a free site. I tried Muse and it was great to get your feet wet but I wanted more out of a site. I then saw a site saying you could learn to code in 15 minutes. I was like great! This is just what I need and it won't take long at all.
A few years later and I am still learning. Thanks to Free Code Camp and YouTube. So much for 15 MINUTES!
