Zakia's Story I first became interested in coding when I realized the incredible potential it has to create and innovate. The idea of building something from scratch, whether it's a website, an app, or a game, fascinated me. My curiosity was piqued by how technology influences and shapes our world, and I wanted to be a part of that. I started exploring coding through online tutorials and found immense satisfaction in solving problems and seeing the results of my efforts. The more I learned, the more I was drawn to the endless possibilities coding offers, both in terms of career opportunities and personal projects.
I am motivated to learn how to code for a variety of reasons. I see coding as a pathway to career advancement and the potential for higher-paying job opportunities in tech-driven industries. I am also inspired by the creativity and problem-solving aspects of coding, enjoying the process of building websites, apps, or automating tasks. I want to be self-sufficient in managing my own projects, reducing reliance on external developers. Additionally, I view coding as a gateway to innovation, enabling me to bring my ideas to life and make a tangible impact on the digital world. The supportive communities and resources available for learning to code provide me with encouragement and a sense of belonging, making the journey both rewarding and enjoyable
Some of my hobbies include reading, exploring the outdoors, and engaging in creative pursuits. I love to read books, whether they are fiction or non-fiction, as it allows me to relax and learn new things. I also enjoy outdoor activities like hiking and biking, which give me a chance to appreciate nature and stay active.
