So as the program comes to an end and each of the apprentices sprints their last leg, we've each gotten a chance to take the vast sea of tech knowledge we've gained and put it to use creating things we're passionate about. Tricia Rosetti sat down with each of us and got the skinny on what we've been working on during final project time. Here's my excerpt below:
TaLea (she/her)
Bio: Before learning to code, TaLea spent the majority of her time homeschooling her children and making music. She has been recording music for over a decade and sees coding as a new outlet she can use to be creative. After seeing her husband begin learning to code, she found the motivation to start learning as well and began taking courses on Codecademy in the Summer of 2017. Soon after, she found out about Techtonica, applied, and was accepted. She sees Techtonica as the start of a lifelong coding journey and is excited to see where the path is going to lead her next.
