“I'm trying to figure out if I love art enough to be poor.”
Hello, I'm Elle - how
you say 'She' in French. I'm 26, from England, living in Derby. The path to discovering my interest in
front-end programming has been anything but straightforward.
Experiencing different environments and careers has uncovered my
love for design, appreciation of practicability and the enjoyment
of creating a product that someone wholeheartedly loves.
A chance encounter with Studio Ghibli lead me to study
2D animation in college - which also sparked my love for digital
art. Part-time freelancing had me creating logos, digital
portraits, handwritten chalkboards and more. Though I enjoyed
freelancing, I couldn't help but feel like something was missing.
Discovering SheCodes was the beginning. Through my experience, I discovered the enjoyable aspects of
programming and, above all, the ability to combine many of
my passions.
