              On May 26th, 2019, I came to the realization that, in my current
              position as a golf professional, I was never going to be fully
              challenged. If I continued on this current track, I could certainly
              have a nice career, but I would never feel fulfilled. I realized I
              needed more from my career to grow as an individual, but I didn't
              know exactly what that would mean. I have an economics degree, so I
              thought I would pursue a position as a data analyst. Typically, the
              requirements for this type of job were some sort of business degree
              coupled with some sort of database coding knowledge, such as SQL. I
              took a course on mySQL and realized that, not only was coding
              something I was capable of, but I loved it.

              I started doing some research to find my next move after this class,
              and kept seeing posts about learning HTML, CSS and JavaScript, so I
              figured I'd give it a try. Within a couple of hours, I created a
              simple HTML site and launched to a local server; immediately I was
              captivated. I wanted to know everything there was to know about this
              crazy world. I consumed course after course through various
              platforms, starting out with several courses from Udemy and then
              moving on to a more focused approach on Frontend Masters. Every
              night, I would get off work and race home to start studying and
              learning. It has become an obsession, and I've loved every minute of
              it.

              After 6 months, I've accomplished a lot and my passion for this
              complex world has grown by the day. I've taken over 300 hours of
              coursework and deployed around 30 projects to Github. My focus has
              primarily been in JavaScript and React, but I've also studied quite
              a bit about Node, CSS, and VueJS. These newfound technical skills,
              coupled with around 15 years in the customer service industry and
              the soft skills attained there, give me a unique profile of
              attributes that would prove very useful. I have shown that I don't
              require any outside motivation for learning new things and I take
              great pleasure in the act. If hired, my value as an employee would
              be limitless.
