Over the last five years, I’ve learned a variety of programming languages independently, in part-time courses at Juno as well as a 3-month intensive bootcamp at BrainStation. I have built a variety of projects leveraging React, JS, Node, Express and mySQL, including a Capstone project. I made a full stack application to help connect musicians with performance opportunities and display these performances on a map of Toronto so users can see where they are. I started by building the backend routes with a SQL database and Node.JS, followed by the frontend React portion with api calls to connect the backend. The final portion I worked on was integrating the Google Maps API to help display the gig markers. My decade of experience as a musician has taught me creativity, problem-solving, punctuality and collaboration. Moreover, I am adept at learning new information quickly and interacting with diverse populations. I think these skills will transfer well to a web development role as you are often faced with challenges of learning new programming languages and have to think quickly on how to solve problems that you’ve not dealt with before.
