In 2014 I graduated from Marquette University with two majors in Marketing and Economics. After working in account management for a handful of years I realized it wasn't for me...
I taught myself Python and SQL so I could better analyze data for the accounts I managed, and so I could eventually move to a data analysis position...
But after a JavaScript course on Udemy I realized building web apps was what I really wanted to do. Seven years later and countless nights and weekends spent learning, I'm still at it and loving it every bit as much.
