Very informative and inspiring! I just graduated with a communication degree but I realized I want to get into tech after taking a few courses in my junior year. I am an intern at a very small startup atm. I definitely seemed like I would never break into the field but your story and your recommendations really motivated me. Thank you, Stephanie.

This was such an informative and inspirational video! I am in a similar situation, where I’d like to switch careers from non-tech project managing to a role in the tech field. I am taking the google cloud course and will take the recommendations this video provided to help immerse myself further into tech!

What a double coincidence watching Stephanie after just viewing the last video of someone who mentioned her - a colleague that goes by the name of Priyanka - in the *How to get a job in cloud without a degree* video!😀 Like people who venture into this discipline by untraditional or unconventional means. In this case, Communications.

P.S. I am the 800th 👍🏽.
