Hello, and nice to meet you! My name is Jennifer Stewart and I want to share a little bit about myself and about why I choose Lambda School to learn coding. Below you will find some info about me, what I have learned and studied so far, projects I have done and accomplishments I have achieved. All of this leads up to the reasons I want to be a Developer, and why I would be a great fit for the Lambda School. I hope you enjoy!

About Me

A little about me... I live in a suberb outside of Kansas City with family, where I enjoy spending time with them doing things like indoor rock climbing, playing soccor at the park or playing games online with eachother. I am very greatful that my family is very supportive of my pursit to be a Web Developer. I don't have to work and can give my full, and uninterrupted attention if choosen to go to the Lambda School.

Web Development started as an interest and then hobby in 2016 for me. Finding Free Code Camp's online tutorials was what really focused my attention on learing HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Since then I have found so many more resources to help further my knowledge on Developing. Some of my favorite resources include:

W3Schools
Javascript|MDN
DevDocs
OverAPI

Why Lambda?

Since I have started taking the Lambda precourse I have learned more of the following subjects:

  • HTML tags and attributes
  • CSS3 box model and styling of webpages
  • Javascript variables and data types, arrays, functions, and so much more!

However, I'm most interested in enhancing my knowledge of the following web development languages:

  • React
  • Python
  • Node
  • Redux
  • SQL
