Hi Anja I am just starting my journey at 33 and loving it so far.

It is so exciting learning something new again each day! Hoping by next year to get over imposter syndrome and begin applying for jobs in programming

Good luck with your courses

Currently in logistics and retail but also been in catering.

So learning alongside a full time job with 3 kids as well always makes it challenging. Currently practising by making an app to help my son's with their schoolwork and spellings etc
