Who Am I?
Just a small town girl...alright enough of that. I just started my 100 days of code journey in October 2021 with ambitions to be a full stack web developer. A career change can be really scary but also fun and exciting. I know the road isn't going to be easy. If it were, everyone and their mom would be in tech.
Where Do I Start?
I, like many others, began my search on how to become a software developer/engineer/web developer on Google, Reddit and YouTube. There is tons and tons of information out there and can be a bit overwhelming. Then I stumbled upon Jeremiah People's YouTube channel. Hey look! An Air Force guy like me who wanted to teach himself how to code and did the damn thang! I watched his videos over and over, followed some of the people he follows and watched theirs. Just seeing a regular person, like me, getting into this field was so relatable, I knew I could do it!
Why DEV?
I do have a face for movies as you can see in my profile lol but I enjoy blogging. I want to be able to record my journey in a safe space. Read posts from others going through the struggle and getting tips on good practices in coding and more along the way.
That's it for now, I'll catch you guys on the next one. Mandy..out.
