Salome's Story As a single mum, I first became interested in coding because I wanted to create better opportunities for myself and my child. I knew that learning a valuable skill like coding could open doors to flexible, remote work opportunities, which would allow me to balance my career ambitions with the responsibilities of being a parent. The idea of being able to build things from scratch whether it’s a website, an app, or even automating tasks really excited me. I saw coding as not just a technical skill but a way to be more self-sufficient and provide a stable future for my family. Being able to work in a field that is growing and in demand, while also having the flexibility to manage my time and be present for my child, is what truly motivated me to pursue coding.

🤹‍♀️ Salome's Hobbies

I enjoy a variety of hobbies that help me relax and stay balanced. Reading is one of my favorites, especially self-development books and novels, as they allow me to escape into different worlds and gain new perspectives. I also enjoy cooking and experimenting with new recipes it's a great way to unwind and get creative in the kitchen. I like spending time outdoors, whether it's going for a walk or exploring nature. It helps me stay active and refreshed. Recently, I've also developed an interest in learning new digital tools and technology, which has fueled my curiosity in coding.
