I was a bike store vendor last 6 years, but since October 2017 I started to learn to program. In 2018, I leave my store job and had worked at home, helping familiars with sites and preparing for developer interviews. Since November I got a real job as a Junior Web Developer on Nuxt.js (SSR for Vue.js), after a couple of months, I had to be involved in backend development via Node.js and Apollo GraphQL. Now I lead a small team of developers, we work remotely and systematically improve our tech stack. My next goal is to get the job in silicon valley, to reach it I should increase my programming level in deep (to understand base things, as protocols and algorithms) and breadth (for example now I trying to figure out how React and Redux works).
