Too Long; Didn't Read
<em>I wrote this when I was coming to terms with a desire to transition out of a nine year long career in Sales. I didn’t necessarily know what direction I wanted to head in next, but I’d spent 6 months learning to program while figuring things out. While researching boot camps in the Bay Area, I noticed that a highly rated one in Mountain View had a scholarship opportunity available. I filled out some forms on my background, turned in some code from a project, and wrote an essay on the prompt they provided (located below). Hands down… it was one of the best decisions I’ve made in the past few years. The program lit a fire under my butt to better understand my potential and I’ve been in love with process of acquiring new talents ever since.</em>
