I had previously worked in several different sectors but wanted to do something that would provide me with a challenge and allow me to continuously learn and develop. I have always been a creative person so a career as a developer ticked all those boxes.

My educational background is...

I am a self-taught Javascript developer. My interest in coding began in 2019 when I completed a Javascript, HTML & CSS bootcamp. From there I created an online portfolio and have since continued to develop my skills through online courses and with the help of my colleagues.

Don't hesitate, even if you think you aren't the stereotypical 'tech person'. There are so many opportunities in the digital and tech space, it really is somewhere you can make a lifelong career.
