MY ROLE

I was determined to learn how to code. I would watch endless videos on Youtube and spend so much time on Visual Studio Code trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. Coding is so frustrating, especially at the beginning of my learning process, it use to stress me out so much.
I would see people on Twitter talk about doing internships and I thought to myself, I can do it too. I can learn how to code and get an internship and be part of those conversations. I wanted to do an internship and get the full experience. I joined a program called Year Up, I was part of the software development track. After 6 months of intense learning, I got the opportunity to intern at Expedia Group.

PYTHON

This was my first Python class and it was fun and stressful at the same time. I was also taking a Java class and three other classes. I was very stressed because this was at the beginning of the pandemic.  There were times that I wanted to give up because I felt overwhelmed, but I knew that If I stayed consistent and studied the materials eventually I will get the hang of it. The Year Up program was a lot, they expected so much from the students and held all of us to very high standards. I am forever grateful for taking a chance on myself. I was awarded profession of the week and got on the Dean's list that quarter. 

 

I was very proud of myself for being able to code this game, it was definitely my proudest moment and made everything worth it. I went to my teacher's office hours and asked him countless questions because at first I was having so many errors and it was getting to me. Pulled so many all-nighters and was able to get full points and both my games run effortlessly.

Attempting to code this and adding all the stripes and stars was confusing at first, but once I got the hang of it, it was fun to learn how to code the American Flag.
