Nadia Zuk's Journey into Tech

Nadia Zuk shares her experience of transitioning from being a journalist and English teacher to becoming a self-taught developer. After facing disappointment and wanting a fresh start, she decided to learn programming as a means to relocate to a new country. She initially had doubts about her ability to become a programmer, but with encouragement from her husband and seeing the success stories of others online, she began her programming journey. Starting with tutorials in Ruby and then progressing to HTML, CSS, and other web development skills, she dedicated herself to learning and building a portfolio. After nine months of self-study and persistence, she landed her first job as a full-stack developer in Poland, which marked the beginning of her successful career in tech.
