Hi Ashlee! I am a second year CS student and I was wondering what advice would you give to a college student who does not exactly know if he wants to be Web Developer or not. I have interest in Web Development but I have interest in other fields as well. It really depends on my level of interest but wanted to hear from you on what made you decide you want to be a Web Developer.
I didn’t know I wanted to be a web developer until I tried it out. My senior project was angular front-end and express back-end. That was my first real exposure, and I just fell in love with it.
So, my advice is to try anything that sparks your interest. My “ideal career” changed about 75 times because I kept discovering things I enjoyed doing.
On that note, when you find what you love, freaking embrace it. People are weird and judgy about all kinds of stuff, but don’t let what other people think of you dictate your life. They won’t be paying your bills. 😉
