---
I am a degree holder in Engineering, Electronics and communication, who passed out with good grades. Coming out of college, confidence was not all there, so life's course took me a different route. Family responsibilities made me seek other avenues, I worked in the medical field, which obviously I was not very happy about, but stayed put due to flexibility the job offered, and to be there for my daughter, who was little then, was of utmost priority.

End of 2016, my husband, Ken, was diagnosed with cancer, which came as a shocker. He felt the need to get back to work to support the family after a 6-month hiatus undergoing treatment, which broke my heart. I felt so helpless and discouraged. I scoped out my options of what I want to do for myself and for my family. I researched quite a bit online and found my calling was in web development and decided to pursue that route. I was very happy about this decision, finally I was able to do what I always wanted to, and I would be able to help the family. Like the saying goes "everything happens for a reason", I started to see how things were unfolding in my life, I would say the whole experience was nothing less than a divine intervention.

My research online led me to Bloc, whose review on Course Report and SwitchUp were excellent. I enrolled into their 'online web development appretinceship', the journey started and since then there was no turning back, as I knew this is what I wanted to do.
