During my first career after college, I was blessed to have been introduced to the beautifully indented language of python. Creating elegant scripting orchestrations for file processing opened my eyes to the power of code. With a few lines, I could crunch through terabytes of data; I was enamored and my thirst to drink code full time began! My craving to become a developer was quenched by attending a boot camp, RefactorU, taught by two of the most genuine and smart people I have ever known. This camp helped me obtain the skills and confidence to seek out job opportunities in full stack web development. I also full heartedly embraced the open source javascript community and continue to try to contribute to projects whenever possible. I am currently a Full Stack Engineer at Shutterstock.
