What impact has EDA had on you?
It has given me an incredible opportunity to learn from great instructors. Not only have I learned how to code, I learned how to be a professional and I think that is something that not many people can say when they attend a bootcamp or even school for that matter.
What has been the biggest lesson you have learned?
I am capable of doing a lot more than I thought I was able to do, which is going to help me in my career.
What has been your favorite memory from EDA?
When I was finally finished with my solo project and was able to present it. It felt like a weight being lifted off my shoulders and it helped that I was also very proud of it.
If you were to give advice to someone considering applying to EDA, what would you say?
To give it your all because you can do it. No matter how hard you may think it is, or how hard it gets, just remember that you are capable of doing anything as long as you apply yourself and care.
What advice do you have for the next cohort?
Have fun and enjoy it. It tends to go by very fast.
