Journey to Greatness


From mediocrity to achieving my dreams as a Software Engineer

Finally understanding Fetch and Promises...*

*…using analogies and not so technical verbiage.


My unbelievable RubyConf experience!


A better understanding and appreciation of MVC

As I started my 2nd project with is Sinatra, I was very unsure of myself at first, and in hindsight, it was probably because I didn’t fully understand what MVC was. Actually, I knew what the action was, I just didn’t fully understand how it worked, and the details that make it so cool.


My 1st Project -- CLI Data Gem Frudemy

The week leading up to my CLI project was great! My cohort lead reviewed the basics of doing a scrape in a couple of study groups… we did a couple of object oriented scrapes as a group beforehand… I even had access to ton’s of video on the learn.instruct site(https://instruction.learn.co/student/video_lectures#/) to help!! It looked simple enough. Therefore, I planned a very ambitious project. Instead of the two level scrape that was required, I opted for a 4 level scrape!! And it was going to have great graphics, color, it was going to be fast and efficient, and well put together.
