1. I think that is important to think about how your microaggresions affect everyone, not just the social minority. If we are trying to make a better world for everyone then why start with a model that is exclusive? By considering microaggressions it allows you to think outside the box and consider as many people from as many angles as possible. It comes down to being as inclusive as possible to as many people as possible.
2. It is challenging as an ally. If you don't talk to the target as to whether they want to speak to the agent themselves or are ok with you speaking to them, you are in fact telling the target that they dont have the power to stand up for themselves and need you to do it for them.

• I reached out to a friend named Matt Sadler by text message
• I contacted him about meeting up to talk about his experience in the field, and since he runs the front-end for Craftsy, what kind of things he looks for while interviewing junior devs
• We met up on thursday of last week and I was able to include some fellow students in our conversation
• We are following up right now over text and we are working on collaborating on a React project he wants to start on github. This will be great for my portfolio

I like many people discovered my love of technology at a very early age with video games. This fostered a curiosity and desire to make my own, which led me to programming. I set that aside as I went into the marines and found my love of teamwork and passion for the close knit bond formed in tight teams. After getting out I tripped into a bartending job that I worked at for almost a decade, and found that I find fulfillment and joy working with customers and developing lasting bonds and friendships. We have a tradition now of having friendsgiving for everyone who can't make it home for thanksgiving at my house. Through it all I carried my love of technology and when I left the bar and decided I needed a career that would I would find joy and fullfillment, I knew it needed to be in the tech field. After doing some research I found that the front end would provide my love of technology, small team unity, and working with customers.

What have you learned about the use of agile vs. waterfall in software projects? I've learned that waterfall looks more appealing to the customer because you can give an idea of how long its going to take and an amount that it should cost. However, agile is better and usually cheaper as your not stuck paying the expensive people without making it anywhere and you are constantly getting user feedback.

How did you and your group approach project management in this project (what tools did you use, how did you hold each other accountable, etc.)? We approached agile by going back and refactoring our code every few days. We tested the page to find all of the bugs every other day to get feedback on what was working and what wasnt. What role did you take on in the project? I took the role of of refactoring much of the code that had already been written to make a better experience. What changes would you make to your approach in future team projects? In the future I want to communicate a lot more often and

1. You need to add the .md to enable the markdown language. I forgot the first time and it really messed things up for me.

Google aggresively

This really resonated with me as I've always thought that in order to be a good programmer I needed to know everything about the language im working with and that having to look something up was a failing. I was under the assumption that great programmers just knew everything and didn't need to look up how to do things anymore. Understanding that great programmers google aggresively gives me a lot of confidence that I can become a good programmer someday. It also takes alot of the stress and self-doubt away that was a large wall in my developmental path.

Code is Cheap

Understanding that I don't have to be perfect the first time and just because I put work in a certain way to begin with doesn't mean its always best to continue. I find that it can be really easy to get bogged down in how your going to do something, so that you have a perfect plan, but it take you so long to figure out all those details you never actually star
