Christina took us back to her early childhood when her parents tried to encourage embrace computer science. She told us about her deceptions failing to enter a med-school and had to introspect. She explained how she took a job, rediscovered programming, and rejected it again; going for animation instead. We spoke about Lord of the Ring and animating movies before coming to the point where Christina (finally) embraced software development. We talked about the front-end Bootcamp she did, the various interviews, and how she finally landed at Google. And we finished on a tech parenting note!
