No, I was actually really fascinated by the server and IT infrastructure in these types of operations and worked to make a career switch to programming.

I’m a full stack engineer now professionally, and work on open source code on the side.



Really sorry to hear how things turned out for you career-wise. Just know that we all feel you and we are here whenever you need to talk about it.


Haha yeah, this is my tech safe space lol..

The career path hasn’t been so bad. Applied my understanding of electrons to computer science, and have launched a number of apps and services since.

Currently working on a side project that’s a WordPress alternative built with Next.js and Tailwind :)
