Krima Patel graduated with full time Web Development Evening Cohort 19.

I have been a healthcare worker for over six years and am making a career change into software engineering. My background has allowed me to develop the essential skillsets to transition into the tech field. After college, I was uncertain about my career path, so I continued working in healthcare with an emphasis on new technologies. Having worked with various healthcare applications and machinery has allowed me to see how computers and software programs work together to streamline workflow, resolve issues to ensure accuracy and has shown me just how big of an impact the tech field has had on healthcare. In a matter of a few years it has changed my work experience; this led me to dive into web development courses online which then brought me to Nashville Software School. At NSS, I have gotten experience in problem-solving, working in both individual and team-oriented environments, and overcoming the fear of failure, my biggest challenge. I am eager to learn, grow and maximize my potential as a software engineer. I am excited to be a part of Nashville’s growing tech community!

Kristen Chandler graduated with full time Web Development Evening Cohort 19.

I’m a software engineer that recently transitioned from a career in writing and marketing. I first tried my hand at coding back in the myspace days when I wanted to customize my profile. However, it wasn’t until a family member suggested I consider it as a career that I really dug in deep and realized that I loved it. I aspire to take my creative thinking and passion for development and build a fulfilling career in this exciting field.

Mitch McCullough graduated with full time Web Development Evening Cohort 19.

While in college as an Industrial & Systems Engineering student, I realized that some of my most enjoyable classes were those which required a certain degree of interaction with a computer. I'd always been interested in new technology growing up, spending hours on the old PC in the family living room until someone had to drag me away. This became even more obvious as I launched into a career as an Operations Industrial Engineer for the Postal Service. I found that I was frequently prone to looking for technical solutions to 'ordinary problems' in data and software. In the end, it was only natural that I found my way to Nashville Software School, where, in familiar company, I can hone my software skills to live out the dream of improving the world one line of code at a time.

Keaton Law graduated with full time Web Development Evening Cohort 19.

I am a software developer with Object Oriented Programming experience using JavaScript, React, Python, and Django Prior to beginning my journey into software development I worked as an automotive technician, with a focus on electrical diagnoses. The logical trouble shooting has always appealed to me, and after being introduced to software engineering I recognized all of my favorite parts of my current career and none of my least favorite. The software development world has re-ignited a passion for learning that has been the most fun I've had learning new things in almost ten years, which I hope to continue into a fulfilling career in software development.
