Hi there!


While obtaining a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance, I wasn't sure where life was going to take me. I worked my way up to the title of manager in the service industry, but still, I yearned for a new challenge. As time went on, I considered my options: pursuing a master's degree, finding a new job, or changing careers altogether. Eventually, after lamenting over my dilemma with a close friend, he asked, "Have you ever considered coding?". "Don't you need a crazy amount of school for that?" I asked. He then proceeded to explain how diverse coding had become, how different backgrounds are constantly welcome and, most importantly, he gave me all the resources I could ask.

That day in late 2016 was when I became curious about this coding thing. Thanks to heaps of meet-ups, in-person and online courses, web searches, and the help of my coding friends, I gained knowledge of programming and was ready to take it to another level.

I started down a path which was notorious for its highs and lows. I resigned myself to a future of frustration being followed by fulfillment. I signed up for a Coding Bootcamp and graduated from DigitalCrafts' full-time immersive coding bootcamp in January of 2018. Afterwards, after a year of spending 40+ hours a week coding, taking online courses, building projects and expanding my knowledge, I started applying for jobs and landed my first opportunity as a Senior Software Developer for AT&T. I began my journey there in December 2018, and I've been working daily to continue to improve and constantly learn since.
