... 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...
And now a word from our sponsor...

... and now back to our scheduled programming.
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!
