My name is Akshaya Satheesh.
I'm a 23 year old Sports Science graduate residing in Greater London.
I am both a creative and logical professional, although my personality oozes with more of the former.
While I grew up focused on my passion for fitness and health, it was not until after I had graduated and began experiencing adult life that I soon realised what I had expected was not my reality.
I was not happy with my job in the fitness industry, so I decided to quit and figure out what my other passions could possibly be.
It began with helping my mum set up her own online SEO business.
I worked on a few wordpress pages, sifting through tech trends and designs that could benefit her business' website.
As she drew in clients, I also aided in a few client websites, dabbling in designing logos and editing the html and css.
All of the new experiences in tech brought me back to a part of my childhood I forgot about - editing the html and css on tumblr blogs.
I had forgotten about my (undeveloped) interest in designing and developing a beautiful website.
As my mum has a background in IT, she advised me to use free online resources and play around to see if coding was my thing.
That's when I came across Founders & Coders and fell in love with their amazing projects that have come out of pure hardwork, altruism and vision.
After nearly half a year of self-schooling using the online resources required in the application prerequisite and other amazing tutorials I've come across, I have begun my journey into coding.
My passion extends in every new piece of design or project I am given and I wish to take full advantage of the amazing programme in order to come out a much more successful and knowledgable developer.
I am excited to learn more programming languages and in more extensive detail, as I have the desire to create meaningful tech that can overcome real-life challenges.
