Hello Devs,
My name is Kendra and my goal is to be a frontend developer.

I have been learning to code for a few years now. As a stay-at-home mom, it has taken me a while to learn. I have done a frontend bootcamp and a few online courses with some breaks in between.

My children are older now and in school, so I am now pushing myself more to get out there and get hired. I still have a ways to go, but I'm ready for the ride. Hopefully I can make some connections here, help others, receive some help/feedback. I've been exploring the dev community for a little while and I love the positive atmosphere I see here.

So far I have learned the basics, HTML, CSS and JavaScript. I am currently learning React. I also decided to build a simple portfolio and put it out to the world. Please feel free to check it out and give feedback if you wish.

Thank you.
