How did I become a Developer?

My passion for coding started back in 2016 when I discovered FreeCodeCamp's Front-End Certification course. At the time I was working for a top Fortune 25 Medical Insurance company as a Technical/Administrative Liaison remotely to a team of nurses. I made it my personal goal to learn everything about Javascript and all I could about the world of Development. Finally, I had found a subject that was both a challenge, yet a creative outlet.

In June 2020 I made a life altering decision to enroll in Lambda's full-time, Full-Stack Web-Development program and pursue my passion. Lambda isn't easy. Learning a new career in a short amount of time takes commitment, that's why I have dedicated nights, weekends, and even holidays to never fall behind. And I believe my efforts have paid off. On day 1 my class size was around 120. Less than half of us will graduate. Only around 25 students will graduate without having to have ever repeated a unit. Proudly, I am one of those 25 students. I actually secured my first position as a Full-Stack Developer at a Renewable Energy Comany 1 week before I graduated! Currently I am working on new version of my company's application that will help our customers understand how clean energy is saving them money.
