My Programming Journey
+ +My journey begins at Saint Louis Community College.
+
I earned my AS degree in Information Systems at Saint Louis Community College. At this time, my focus was computer networking. I took many courses in Cisco etc. While completing my degree, one of my required courses was Introduction to Java. I was very interested in this Java class. However, that would be my only required programming course for the degree requirements. My degree was almost complete at this time so I decided to stay on course with the computer networking. I was, and still am, interested in computer networks as well as programming.
+ + + +My next step in my journey was at Webster University.
+
When I completed my AS degree, I wanted to continue my education. I decided to find a program that would match up best with the courses I took for my AS degree. I was not able to find a BS program for networking, but decided to enter a BS in Information Management program at Webster University.
+One of the first required courses for the program was C++. I enjoyed learning about object oriented programming in this course. I was required to take two semesters of C++. Because I enjoyed programming, I decided to minor in computer applications (web programming). These were my favorite courses.
+ + + +My current step in my journey is at LaunchCode.
+
I applied at LaunchCode to learn more about Java, and to persue a career in programming.
