This week, I got to learn how to create a 3D model of my logo for my business, Square Spark, on Sketch Up. I really enjoyed how I got to manipulate the shapes and create something abstract. Mr. McClain was very helpful in showing us how to use Sketch Up and how 3D design is […]
After completing my CSS training and earning my warrior status, I was thrown right into my first quest. I was to go and investigate a new creature that had made itself known to our community. My colleagues and I seemed to be the only ones with enough training to investigate what it was, so we […]
So this week has brought some highlights and some low ones. First, our meeting with Doe Anderson was not as exciting as I thought but it was insightful and I am glad I had the experience. I scored MAJOR brownie points with the CEO!!! (Initiate happy dance). I’m excited for the different projects that have […]

This week has been a week of realization for me. There are many things that I have learned about myself thanks to the people I work with. Imposter syndrome for example, a term that describes the feeling when you do not believe that you are good enough. I realized that this is something that is […]
My obstacles for the week is keeping myself on task with all of the various projects. At first, I was a bit overwhelmed with the blog posts, Future Up website, my personal site, and my business site because I wanted to add so much detail and “go all out” on everything. But I realized that […]
I love vacations. They really help me clear my mind and come back more productive. I was going through a bit of a rut when it came to my endurance during the work day, but every chance I had to work, I was completely focused on whatever I was working on! I’m really motivated to […]
I wanted to work hard at work this week. I want to accomplish more than average time of coding in HTM L and CSS. I’m also going to continue to not be frustrated when i don’t get some thing right the first time.
