Melody's Story Growing up in a rural environment, my exposure to coding was limited. However, as the world continues to embrace the digital age, I have witnessed firsthand the immense impact of technology on our lives. This realization sparked a deep interest in coding and its ability to shape the global landscape. The ever-expanding digital frontier has captivated me with its transformative potential.
