ivananaWho am I? A woman who started coding at 42. An aspiring full-stack developer with a Bootcamp education and about a year of programming experience. A single mother of a teenage girl, passionate about new experiences, new places, new people.
Although I'm pretty confident that I can write high-quality code, blogging in English is probably too much of a task for me. But, let's try anyway.
With college degrees in economics and computer science, I was a journalist and editor in the biggest Montenegrin daily news for almost two decades until the decline in print media motivated me to turn to a more promising occupation.
It seemed that the Outreachy program was just what I needed between the software boot camp I recently finished and my future job, especially because it was open-source-oriented, which is an area I am particularly interested in.
So, for the next three months, I will be working on Wikimedia's project Programs && Events Dashboard as an Outreachy intern.
My profession is a significant part of my life, but there is so much more. I travel or attend live music events whenever I can, currently planning to catch Gojira on a European winter tour (Berlin or Paris, that is the question).
When it comes to everyday activities, my favorites are hiking with my daughter, out-of-town cycling, and spending time with friends. I enjoy SF TV shows, movies or books, good music...
