Eveline Kooijman's Project

Web Developer at

Following the completion of our Web Development Program in May 2018, Eveline landed her dream job as a frontend developer (React) at 8select, a data and technology consultancy based in Germany.

While she’s nothing short of a whiz at web development, Eveline’s background isn’t what you might expect. From 2003 to 2017, Eveline was a talented photographer—receiving two grants and the Culture Award of the Bavarian Oberpfalz region for her photography projects in 2014.

Photographer to web developer isn’t necessarily a commonly trodden career path. So what inspired her foray into tech?

“I transitioned to web development because I really enjoy coding, the process of making things work, connecting all bits and pieces together, and abstractly defining functionality. I still have a lot to learn, but I love the continuous growth that comes with being a developer.”

Below, Eveline maps out the creation of one of her CareerFoundry projects, DAVY.
