HOW DID YOUR JOURNEY INTO TECH BEGIN?
HOW DID YOU GET INVOLVED WITH CFG?
I ended up taking the Level 1: Web Development Course (HTML/CSS) in January 2018 and then I took the Level 2: Advanced Python Web Development Course in October 2018.
WHAT MOTIVATED YOU TO GET INVOLVED?
I applied because I was interested in writing code that allowed me to be creative. So when I heard of Code First Girls and the Level 1: Web Development Course it sounded like a good starting point. So I could create a simple website and try and style it. However, after the course my interest only grew further as I wanted to delve into what else could be done with it.
So I attended the Code First Girls Event hosted in Bank Of America, where I learnt more about the type of positions available and what else I could do with programming languages. Not long after I applied to the Level 2 Python Web Development course which I completed in my final year.
