Yaw Kessey-Ankomah, from New York, was studying pharmacy and not feeling it. With a computer scientist brother as the nudge, he took a couple of CodePath courses, challenged himself, and made the switch through the Futureforce Tech Launchpad.
My name is Yao kesi ankoma and I’m from New York so before this program I was studying Pharmacy and I didn’t really feel like it was utilizing my skills that I had I noticed that like I wasn’t applying myself like I went home and then I didn’t really want to learn more about Pharmacy my brother is also a computer scientist so I was like maybe this might be something I’m interested it’s when I made my switch I took a couple courses at Cold path and from there on I was able to like challenge myself in ways that like I never thought I could challenge myself the first time I actually programmed and saw like the hello world on the screen I was like I did something I believe that I am a different person coming here I get a chance to like improve on myself actually do the things that I wanted to do and I’m excited for what’s next thank you
