# From Student to Front-End Developer

## BIO

**NAME**: Tomasz  
**FIRST JOB**: Front-End Developer  
**COUNTRY**: Poland  
**COMPANY**: Self-Employed

As someone who has always had a close relationship with technology, it felt like a natural progression to venture into coding. As we emerged from the global pandemic, I looked for opportunities to further my education. I was studying media before but felt somewhat adrift. The pandemic granted me the time to reflect on my true aspirations, and I actively pursued a career that I would look forward to each day.

Given my interest in building and repairing, I decided to explore programming, which I found genuinely fascinating. My journey began with the Mimo platform, where I learned [Python](/content/courses/python-development/index.html) and the [fundamentals of web development](/content/blog/what-is-web-development/index.html). This initial experience ignited my passion and led me to continue and become part of an incredible community.
