Web Development Journey: How Networking and Mentorship Fuel Success


Embarking on a journey to become a web developer, I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Web Development at Full Sail University. This path is not just about acquiring technical skills but also about building connections and finding mentorship in the tech world.

As I delve deeper into web development, I aim to create applications that simplify everyday tasks. Here are some app ideas I'm considering:

  • Productivity Booster: An app designed to streamline and automate daily tasks, enhancing productivity.

  • Skill Enhancement Platform: A space for individuals to practice web development skills with real-time feedback.

  • Developer Community Hub: A community-driven app where aspiring developers can share resources, tips, and support.

The Importance of Networking and Mentorship

One of the challenges I've faced is finding mentorship and guidance, as I don't have connections in the tech industry. Networking is crucial for learning new skills, gaining insights, and opening doors to opportunities.

Have you successfully connected with people who share your interests or goals, especially in tech? I would love to hear about your experiences. What platforms, communities, or events have helped you forge meaningful connections and find mentors? Your insights could benefit not only me but also other readers looking to expand their networks.

Every new skill I acquire brings me closer to realizing my app ideas. As I deepen my expertise, I hope to contribute to making the digital world more accessible and innovative. Let's navigate the challenges of finding support and building a strong community of learners and professionals together. Share your journey, and let's grow together!

My name is Angella. I enjoy learning how to do all kinds of things. I am currently attending Full Sail University to earn her Bachelor of Science in Web Development. It has been a dream of mine to achieve this and get a job as a web developer. After the life I have had, it would be an awesome thing to show my kids that no matter what life brings us, you can still achieve anything as long as you put your heart and mind into it. I'm a side project enthusiast, just looking for my place on the World Wide Web. I am continuing to still try and find that one thing that might help me to achieve some kind of money through all this. Something that can sustain my life while I am attending college. I have not found that yet. I think finding a niche is the hardest thing for me, to be quite honest.
