Networking Thursday (10/15) – Connect with other Treehouse Students!

Hello all, I am currently learning Javascript after dabbling in front end HTML on and off for a year or so. Finding the dynamic nature of the language really exciting and much more interesting to learn. As a hospitality professional for my entire working life, I am helping to gain skills and knowledge that I can use to help out others in my industry ( one that is notoriously slow to adapt tech solutions ). In my spare time I am passionate about the outdoors and am an active daily runner. Building a basic blog website currently to play around with various things I have learned, not at a point I wish to share yet though! 😃😃🙂🧐🧐😕😐😫😫💡 😄 😀 🧐😩 ( repeat ad infinitum )

Howdy, I am currently learning JavaScript and hope to get to a point where I can gain employment by spring 2021. I earned a BFA in Graphic Design in 2018 and found that to be a less than military friendly job. We move a lot so I need something that compliments that lifestyle. With COVID, kids doing distance and the time I have due to 2020, I decided to apply myself and learn front end development. I do not have any projects that I would like to share at the moment but I have a few that I am brainstorming. I am very optimistic about this journey, especially after finding TreeHouse. I tried to learn using a lot of the free sources but over a month later and things were getting awfully difficult to stick. Now things make sense and I am progressing! 🤞😒🤦‍♀️😢😤🌳🏠😯🙂☺😁...

Hello Everyone who has and/or will comment! I'm a Navy veteran currently on terminal leave, I am doing an IT apprenticeship training course through TLG in the Seattle area and learning more Python as I have been dabbling in it for the past few months. I hope to make the transition into Tech as my previous field is Nuclear Power/Engineering maintenance and I'm definitely more interested in Software Development, Game Development and Cloud Computing. My coding journey has looked like: 😮🤷‍♂️🤞🤞🤞🤦‍♂️👀👀🤔🤔🤞🤞👍✔😃🤷‍♂️ Hope to connect with you all on LinkedIn, you can contact me at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hunterbmoffitt/

Hey everyone! I'm a student at University of California, Irvine and currently pursuing a bachelor degree in Business Information Management. I stated learning code back when I was doing my old job as a computer lab technician in the community college. I remember that at some point in my education journey, I decided to enroll in a C++ course. It was a fine experience but I remember hating it after I move to university and I stop coding for around 6 months until I found a video of Chris Sean (idk if you guys have heard about him on YouTube). My curiosity for coding grew ever-since and here I am.

Currently, I'm taking the Front-End developer techdegree here at treehouse and it's been a wonderful experience for me.

Here is what my coding journey look like: 🤔💡🤞🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤔💡🤦‍♂️🤔🤔🤞👍✔🥳🎉😎

Hello everyone! I am currently working towards a UI Designer / Developer role and have been following the Front End Web Development Track to learn HTML , CSS and JavaScript. I hope to transition into the Techdegree upon completion and learn more in depths about each programming language. In my spare time, I enjoy studying Portuguese and Spanish or playing RPG’s such as: Stardew Valley, Borderlands 3, etc.

You can check out some of my work here. Or connect with me on LinkedIn.

I hope to connect with you all! :)

Hello All! Currently I'm doing the very beginning track on Treehouse to help me get a better understanding of how Web Devs, Web Designers, and Mobile Devs jobs work, plus networking and all that jazz. I'm going through a course in my city that'll hopefully help me switch my focus from telecommunications, where I've spent 5 years of my time, to the tech industry. I have some college experience but never graduated, and I'm learning that's okay! College isn't for everyone. :) I've been teaching myself HTML/CSS the past few weeks to get ready for this course and I'm excited to see where I'm at when it comes to the Treehouse courses. 🤞👀😎👌😒😢🎶🎶🎶💻🐴😍👀👌👌👌 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacob-clark-5a8823126/ GitHub: https://github.com/JaySeeFahx Twitter: @JaySeeFahx

Hi Guys! My name is Isabelle. I am SUPER new to tech and have kind of made a career change amidst the pandemic. I am in the UX Design program and am also a hair and makeup artist specialized in fashion. I'm only a week in but am enjoying treehouse a lot. UX design is a lot like designing a beauty design for your user. Please feel free to message me and checkout my work here :) (PS yes I know my site needs redesigning lol) https://www.isabellemahealani.com/

Hello everybody, my name is Justin. I started my journey in JavaScript but I did not find it catching my attention. I then moved over to python where I fell in love with it. I am hoping to get the course done and move over to Django by January 2021. In my free time I enjoy streaming all types of games on twitch. 😁😒👍🤬😰😭 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/justin-behringer-a1753a1b9 Github: https://github.com/jbehringer95

Hey Everyone, my name is Steve. I am a self-taught front-end web developer. I am currently taking the Front-End Web Development track. I am learning how to code JavaScript now. It is going great so far. I also have experience in UX design. My goal is to create my own game in JavaScript. And also to gain employment full time as a front end web developer.

Hi Everyone,

My name is Tim and I've been teaching myself Python, C++, and Swift, but have been spending most of my time focusing on Python. I don't know exactly what it is, but Python is just really appealing to me. I've mainly been working on some small projects - most recently recreating Flappy Bird using Pygame. I'm also looking at joining a bootcamp for Front-End Web Development as I've talked with some of my coworkers and they've said it was a great experience. Anyways, I hope to connect with some of you on Linkdin

Happy coding!

Hi guys,

My name is Alfonso and I've been learning Django for the last 2 months with the idea of making an app, I have been working for more than 10 years in market research and now I am working in Singapore. I want to build an intelligent website that blends market research concepts and company insights.

I jumped here after finishing the Coursera Django for everybody specialization that it was quite messy and the journey here has been quite smooth in comparison, this is my emoji journey here 💕🐱‍🏍🎢🧨🧨🧨🎢🐱‍🏍💕

My dream was to make a videogame but I think that train already left the station, so I suppose that if I cannot make a videogame I will make an intelligent website instead. Sadly I don't have pictures of my project yet, but soon I will have some.

This is my linkedin profile, it would be good to connect with you guys! https://www.linkedin.com/in/delosreyesalfonso/

Good luck 🐈

Hey all! My name is Tyler and I am a recent graduate of the Front-End Web Development Techdegree!

😁😁😁😁😁😢😢😢🤔🤔🤔✔✔✔✔ . . . . 👌😜

My current job is a store manager for a corporate music retail company, whom I've been with for a total of 4 1/2 years. I have been interested in web development for 11 years since first getting introduced to when helping my mom with my high school band's website. Up until arriving at Treehouse, it had been very off and on exploring code as a hobby, having even dabbled in fundamental PHP and MySQL. I started the TechDegree in May as an indirect result of current world and life events. I never found a quality opportunity and financial circumstance until now where I could do courses leading to an extensive certification with full flexibility in time spent learning AND have something to show for it at the end. I also knew of this company's reputation prior with college friends who have jobs in this type of industry. I am seeking a career shift to development and strive to put emphasis into better accessibility on the WWW.

You can find my portfolio page at tylerpweb.dev. I am working to update my LInkedin Page.

My current hobbies mostly consist of fishing 🎣 and whatever games I can keep my attention to, but am down for a round of golf, bowling, or going to see stock car races.

I am also a classically trained musician with a degree in Music Performance, so I hope my critical thinking skills and work ethic will successfully translate to a job in this field.

Thanks all and happy coding!

I just want to say that being self-thaught programmer and it's been a long road! I have encountered pretty different programs and treehouse has kept me going and kept me motivated. It's nights and days the comparison.
