Having worked with various 3D software from Auto Cad, Jewel Cad, rhino, and Blender(for fun with animation!), I learned the infinite possibilities that go far beyond my skill set as a jewelry designer. I have journeyed through many books, continuing education certifications, and online courses from codecademy.com to udemy.com. The one I have stuck to throughout my journey has been freeCodeCamp.

Marketing
Along the way, I discovered the value of Marketing! At one time, I considered it a nasty word until I realized how integral it is to design, technology, art, and business. I began with a certification in Digital Media Strategy from Bryant University, which was essential to diving into the vast scope of this field. For example, understanding all the tools of the trade ranging from social media, email campaigns on Constant Contact, MailChimp, and content-managed systems to scouring the web for information from Mashable to TechCrunch is essential to growth in selling your product and becoming a web developer.
Data gets bigger and bigger while technology moves along so quickly today that it still can make one feel less like a human and more like a dinosaur. So, the idea is to roll with it and enjoy the journey! The link below shows some code I wrote after reading Donald Miller’s book Story Brand. Also, the book was lent to me at my job as a marketing assistant for a small private lending firm. From there, I decided to take it to another level as a challenge to code.
