Freshta's Story As a child, I have always been fascinated by technology while using computers, playing video games, and exploring different apps. My curiosity for technology increased when I realized how powerful it is that it has completely changed our world by connecting us from different places and has made life much faster and easier. Later on, after participating in many computer courses I became interested in coding, understanding how we can create interesting things like games out of nothing and just by writing lines of code. I was also inspired mostly by my brother who is a successful programmer, watching him create websites and build applications. Looking at my brother I realized how helpful coding can be to other people in solving real-life problems. For example, I remember once he and his team were working on a project to build an application where high school students could learn the basics of physics and mathematics just by participating in different games. All in all, I became interested in coding first with the help of my brother, participating in computer classes, and most importantly by my curiosity in writing code and developing a skill to pursue a stable career path contributing to my community by developing tools and addressing their needs.
