Fork this gist and answer these questions to reflect on your learning experiences.
- What brought you to Turing? I was going on working 6+ years in retail and dreaded walking into work everyday. I had been looking at different options with technology for a career and ended up deciding on Software Development as the path I wanted to take. I was looking at a bunch of different options of where I wanted to learn it until I talked to my friend Juhn who had just graduated from Turing and the passion that I heard as he talked about it completely sold me. After attending a few events for the school I knew that it was where I wanted to go.
- Where do you see yourself after Turing? I see myself working for a company that has a passion for people (both their employees and the customers). I want to help build something with them in mind. I want to build something that somehow enriches people's lives or makes some aspect of their day better and more enjoyable or easier
- From concepts taught in class or your personal learning, what technical concepts do you enjoy exploring most? So far I've really enjoyed everything we've learned, I'd probably say the thing I've enjoyed most though Is building and consuming API's. It completely amazes me how with any number of different API's the amount of things that you can do is really endless.
- What technical concepts do you enjoy exploring least? I honestly haven't found concepts I don't enjoy exploring yet. I would say that Testing and Styling are sometimes more tedious then other concepts but I still enjoy doing those things and thinking of how I can do it better.
- What technical challenges are the most fun for you to solve? The most fun technical challenges for me to solve are ones that really push me to think logically, but more importantly have a real world application or scenario that I can use as I think of ways to solve the problem.
