I chat with Carly, a former Parsity student who learned to code, didn't quit her job and instead decided to become a freelance web developer.

I love stories like hers.

Carly talks about the reality of joining a coding bootcamp program, finding time to code with a full time job, her externship experience with Parsity and advice for early career coders.
