Hi, everyone! I'm a lawyer who has started to learn data science to improve my own work but is now thinking about changing careers in the following years.

As a computer geek, I saw an ad of a cheap "learn how to code" course in Udemy and decided to try it. I didn't even got to half of it, but I realized how learning a programming language (it was Ruby in this course) could be useful and fun. Eventually I started to learn data science with Python in Udacity and loved it. I've also learned some SQL and a little bit of R and I'm following freecodecamp's curriculum to start learning web development too. Maybe I'll enroll in a proper software development college next year and I'm very excited to learn learn something new every day!
