Rethabile's Story I first became interested in coding when I realized how technology shapes the world around us. My journey began during high school when I was exposed to basic computer skills, and I became fascinated with how websites and applications were built. This curiosity grew when I joined the Life Choices Coding Academy Bootcamp, where I was introduced to full-stack web development. I love problem-solving and creating solutions that improve user experiences, which is why coding became so appealing to me. The ability to turn ideas into functional products through code keeps me excited to learn more and continue improving my skills.
