I loved video games as a child and I said I wanted to make video games. In HS I took the only 2 Programming classes but somehow didn’t study it in college...? 4-5 years after graduating I started self learning with Codecademy and others. 4-5 years after that I took an online full stack boot camp with General Assembly and got a job 2 months later.
Of course throughout my life I’ve been very interested in tech, used Linux for many years, and was unknowingly practicing a lot of the foundational skills needed to be a good dev.
