Congrats Helen! Your story of seeing dad bring home that giant PC and being enthralled about the new limitless capabilities sounds a lot like my own life! I played with computers as a child but also never found my way into coding back then. Then, when Android came about, I found myself immersed in a new world and played about learning to code.
By then I was in college and not even thinking this could be a career choice. Sadly my hobby added as life moved on. Over the past few years a friend of mine, then another, then another, went through coding boot camps. It was time for me to quit my job and start over. Scarry as it is, I am so proud to be in a boot camp right now, even if I never make as much money as I did before I know I will be doing something I have a passion for and that alone will be worth this life change!
Best of luck to you out there!
