Before pursuing a guided education in software engineering, I was already very interested in tech. I got my feet wet with many different technologies in many different areas of software. All of this was self-taught via either tutorial sites, books, or just reading documentation to see what I could make work. After graduating from App Academy, a 6 month, full-time, full stack boot camp, I’ve learned so much. I’ve now worked with and built several full stack applications utilizing technologies like JavaScript, Node.js, and Express, as well as Python, Flask, and postgreSQL. I have also collaborated on a team of four to build an app.
