Hello, my name is Adam. I am a self-taught front-end web developer from Slovakia, currently based in Brno. I studied philosophy at Masaryk University in Brno and graduated with a bachelor's degree.When I realized that my chances of becoming a professional philosopher were very slim, I decided to stop my studies and look for a new career path. At that time, my fiance and my brother started to work as software developers. So I gave it a try and got instantly hooked.To sustain myself for a year while learning web development, I worked as a customer service staff at Regiojet Travel Company. I was responsible for the smooth "sailing" of our customers. This job taught me how to deal with angry customers. How to calm them down and help them find the solution to arrive at their destination. It simply taught me important soft skills under sometimes brutal pressure situations and made me appreciate the importance of a well-functioning team. Without my great team and managers, it would be much harder.The main resource on my own journey was the Odin Project. It is a great resource with the exact syllabus that gives you a path to finally getting a job as a web developer. I chose the paths of Javascript. After a year and a half of studying while having a full-time job, I came to the end of the Odin Project syllabus. Now I am comfortable with HTML, CSS, TypeScript, Vue, Nuxt, Node, React, Bootstrap, Tailwind CSS, Git, GitHub, and Figma.
