Loise's Story My journey into coding began in the unlikeliest of places—the heart of my living room, surrounded by toys and the laughter of my children. As a stay-at-home mom, I found myself intrigued by the digital world that captivated my kids. Determined to bridge the generational gap, I embarked on a quest to understand the language of their favorite games and apps. One day, while troubleshooting a gaming glitch, I stumbled upon basic lines of code. It was like deciphering a secret language that held the key to the virtual realms my children explored. The thrill of solving that first coding puzzle ignited a curiosity that soon evolved into a passion. I began dedicating stolen moments between nap times and school runs to unraveling the mysteries of programming. My interest grew beyond a mere parenting tool; it became a personal and intellectual challenge. Coding transformed from a curiosity into a beacon of empowerment, promising a bridge to a world of opportunities beyond the domestic sphere. Now, as I embark on this professional journey, my coding odyssey is not just a personal evolution but a testament to the transformative potential within unexpected beginnings.
