![]() This is what I want to give the students who will be joining the OHBD Computer Science Bootcamp. The network I have is very significant to my growth. This process is still supported by everyone around me. They showed me what their stairs look like. I had a chance to be mentored by amazing professionals and friends who honestly shared their stories. Thankfully, that anxiety was not strong enough to stop me. Granted it’s an exaggeration, but that was how I felt. Thinking I needed to jump in and land on top made it impossible. I imagined the field as a skyscraper with no stairs. Every time I looked at someone who knows how to code, I would just assume they are smart. The people I talked to randomly threw around terms I was not familiar with. The more I wondered, the more anxious I got. I spent so much time wondering instead of actually exploring. I remember thinking “I would love to learn programming.” I also remember thinking “Do I belong in this field?”, “Am I good enough?”. When you try to enter the field as a beginner, it feels like a foreign territory. The hardest thing to overcome in computer science is intimidation.
