Position: Junior Front-end Developer

I have just changed my career from "attorney" to a "front-end developer".
My journey in programming began in spring 2021, when I got interested in the topic of programming and computer science in general, and I got "hooked" on YouTube videos on this topic from various amateurs and professionals in this field. I didn't think about web development then. Later, I came across a free course on "Introduction to Computer Science" from Harvard University's CS50x and decided to try it out of curiosity.
So, from "Scratch" and C, I went to HTML/CSS and... at first I did not like them as much as C. A little later, I discovered JS. It turned out to be very similar to C (comparing with python and html/css), but much simpler and more functional. As a result, I really liked web development and decided to stay in this area, to which I have dedicated myself for the last 9 months.
I had a commercial experience with HTML, CSS / SCSS and Java script:
1st time - when I made a regular web-site for a legal company:
2nd - when a credit institution asked to make a web-site for them with a credit calculator;
3rd - a website for a shipping company.

Also I have a pet-projects on GitHub, in which I worked closely with React, Redux Toolkit, React router, Google authorization and API documentation.
Additionally, I started to develop and study the backend stack for a deeper understanding of web development.
