#167 Jenn Creighton went from paralegal to developing for Netflix
Jenn started by telling us about her discovery of web development when she was 14 years old, but also how she skipped it entirely and went to study law instead. After a few years, she felt miserable, changed jobs, and slowly came back to development. We talked about applying for jobs, mentorship, Angular 1.0, learning Javascript, theatrical performance, tech conferences, and giving talks.
