... the gist ...

Critical thinking is a Skill, an Art Form, and the foundation of great code.
Just like artists use different styles when expressing themselves, the computer programmer can do the same with the code they create... It can dazzle you with its sparkle and shine like a polished diamond adorn with mighty and magical frameworks and APIs, or it can demand respect like a brilliant masterpiece, built with the just the right design pattern and a strategically designed databases, or show up with the innocence and charm of a child expressed through the simplest of doodles... Code may resemble all of the above or anything in between... That's the beauty of it!



Code is a creation brought to life by the artist...
the computer programmer.

The adventures, the discoveries , the trials and tribulations, the obstacles to overcome , and the never-ending hunt for buried treasure... These are the quests that lure us into the incredible and unpredictable world of programming ... and they continue to be a great source of motivation and the reason I wake up excited to tackle whatever happens to come my way! I can't wait to see what unexpected twists and turns my path will take as I step up and welcome the challenges that each new day brings...

...Tis true, that in the Land of Software Development, Information Technology, and Computer Programming one could never be bored... For there is always something new to learn and uncharted horizons to explore!!!

Trained as a Full-Stack Developer at
The Tech Academy Software Engineering Boot Camp,
I gained valuable experience working with the following programming languages and software development tools: C#, JavaScript, ASP.NET, Object-Oriented Program (OOP), MVC, Entity Framework, SQL, Databases, HTML, CSS, Bootstrap and more.

I have always enjoyed taking things apart to see how they work, taking things that don't work and making them work again, and along the way, making improvements to all "the things". I like playing detective, gathering information, finding hidden clues, deciphering secret codes, and solving mysteries. I believe that difficult situations and less than perfect circumstances just make things more interesting. You can always turn negatives into positives. I believe that your perspective, and the ability to change it, can be a superpower.

I tend to smile and laugh,... alot. I have a curious nature, which results in spending quite a bit of my spare time researching and learning new things. To improve my skills, I push myself to take on challenges that force me out of my comfort zone.I take pride in my work.

My goal is to be better today than I was yesterday.
My motto is "Where there's a will,...there's a way!"

Well, that is all I have for now. You have reached the end!
Mission Accomplished!

It is nice to meet you. My name is...
LaurieSue Peterson.
... I can't wait to create solutions with you!

Here's To The Crazy Ones

The misfits. The rebels.
The trouble-makers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They're not fond of rules,
and they have no respect for the status-quo.

You can quote them, disagree with them,
glorify, or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do,
is ignore them.
Because they change things.

They push the human race forward.
And while some may see them as the crazy ones,
we see genius.

Because the people who are crazy enough
to think they can change the world
are the ones who do!

-Steve Jobs

Hoping we meet again soon,
