โ didnโt do any research into the day to day, pay, opportunities, flexibility.

Why did I pick this shade of blue as my brand colour?
I used the power of association. Read on:
After finishing the bootcamp, it was time for me to:
โง create my personal brand
โง start networking
โง apply for React jobs
So I chose the React shade of blue. ๐ต
I wanted to be associated with the technology
- I'm most familiar with and confident in using.
๐ฆป Why did you pick your brand colour?

I'd like to thank my mom and her book club friends. ๐ #achievement #unlocked
When you become an Architect,
you will drive me around in your Ferrari. ๐
That's the kind of thing people around me were saying.
Over a decade ago when I was deciding. Which career to choose.
Once I qualified as an ARB/ RIBA architect,
I realised it was all an illusion.
I'm so passionate about showing architects how valuable their skills are in tech, that I'm mentoring for FREE on Wednesdays on @ADPList book a slot below:
