Beginner Full Stack Web Developer

Hello, my name is Narek Hakobyan. I am a beginner full-stack web developer. I have a Neuroscience degree from the University of Toronto and previous job experience as a legal assistant, and I am now pursuing a career as a web developer.
The reason I did not pursue a career in science after I graduated from the University of Toronto is that I realized from working as a research assistant that gaining knowledge of science was more exciting than actually applying it. After graduating, I decided to change my career path. Therefore, when I was given the opportunity to work in the legal field as a legal assistant, I gave it a try, even though it was out of my comfort zone.
It was exciting to see the inner workings of corporations and work with lawyers / CEOs, but the excitement dulled as the mundane paperwork piled high. I did not feel like I was enjoying the process of working as a legal assistant.
After I brought up these concerns with my older brother, who is a web developer, he recommended that I try web development as a career path. He told me that working as a web developer has been a rewarding career path that stimulates a creative spark within him. He also introduced me to CareerFoundry's full-stack development course so that I could get started.
I was skeptical at first, but getting to learn web development and make applications as part of the CareerFoundry boot camp ignited a passion within me that grows as I learn more about web development. Additionally, I realized that my previous experiences in both fields of law and science taught me skills like detail orientation, problem-solving, and organization, which made the transfer to web development quite easy.
