Story
With six years of university experience in her luggage, a child, the move to another country and a career in music, Frida discovered tech and decided to change her career in the midst of life.
"My background spans six years of university studies, alongside experiences in teaching and marketing. Additionally, I dabbled in songwriting and the music industry. While music was my passion, juggling motherhood made it challenging to immerse myself fully. I delved into coding to enhance my Myspace page and later, while creating my own WordPress sites. Google became my go-to resource, earning me the title of 'Google Master'."
"Coding, like music, envelops me in a world where time flies. Transitioning to Norway from Sweden made me explore career options aligned with my interests, leading me to Technigo. Despite being in my forties, I was ready for the challenge, seeking a fast-paced learning environment. The program's interactive format and vibrant community instantly appealed to me. I tried the small tests on Technigo and really liked the format. Tech can look boring, but Technigo looked and felt fun! With a kid I needed flexibility and the possibilities to work from home. I like to nerd into things and found that within tech."

"Learning has always energized me, and I thrive on hands-on experiences. Balancing parenthood with learning meant prioritizing efficiency and diving straight into practical applications. It's about embracing the journey and celebrating every milestone."
"As a frontend web developer at a Microsoft solution partner, I focus on sustainable fashion brands. The learning curve is steep, but my Technigo experience thaught me with invaluable skills. While I can't rely only on Google anymore, I'm applying the problem-solving mindset we were given during the boot camp. Every day presents new challenges and opportunities for growth."
"Approach the journey with a positive mindset and take ownership of your learning. Embrace the intensity and prepare to rewire your brain. Once you immerse yourself, clarity will follow, and you'll feel a sense of accomplishment like never before. In today's dynamic world, it's perfectly acceptable to explore multiple career paths regardless your age. Find what resonates with you now and adapt accordingly."
