  1. To read my book on JavaScript and do the tutorials
  • Currently I've read a couple chapters but I have not done the practive problems
  • In one year I've read the entire book and done all the end of chapter exercises
  • The resources really are just the book
  • This goal is important to me because I feel I would be a super competent javascript developer doing this and being able to self study would be a huge asset in my software developer career.
  1. Join a coding brigade/start the brigade
  • I've been in Pahlka posse and learned a lot, really like the idea of volunteer brigades
  • In one year I've been regularly going for 3 months to a coding brigade
  • The resources are the website, it has a list of all the brigades that you can join, by area
  • This goal is important to me because I believe in volunteering and this is a way to do it plus it is in my career.
  1. Teach one class in coding
  • I've done lightning talks at Turing and volunteered to speak at Denver Ruby for the beginner track
  • In one year I've taught a class outside of Turing in code
  • The internet is my oyster for teaching a class, it really more depends on the audience for figuring out what I'll teach
  • This goal is important to me because I believe in giving back and also that software development is not a competitive industry but one where we work together and improve in the same boat. Teaching helps others get in and help improve the world.
