Having completed our Web Development Program in July 2018, USA native Matthew now works as both a front-end and back-end developer. Despite coming from a sales background, Matthew had always had an affinity with tech and computers. 

 

“I decided that I wanted to learn the skills necessary for creating websites and applications. I felt that learning these skills, instead of depending on others, would give me the creative freedom and autonomy that I craved. I hope to be involved in many more creative development teams in the future. I never want to stop learning!“

 

Check below MARS; a project developed by Matthew as part of his CareerFoundry coursework.
