I’ve studied law since I was 18. For most of my adult life, my world has been filled with statutes, codes, and legal doctrines. I never thought I would build a website by myself, but here I am.
Originally, I just wanted a simple space to document the thoughts, adventures, and little discoveries happening in my late 20s. I bought a domain name, thinking I’d use a website builder. But somewhere along the way, I asked myself: what if I actually learn to build it from scratch?
So, I started again. Not with a grand plan, but with curiosity and the help of some amazing tools. This post wouldn’t exist without Cursor and ChatGPT, which made everything feel so much more approachable. To the developers behind them: thank you. You’ve made it possible for someone like me—a lawyer who gave up on coding twice and never imagined creating her own site—to try again with excitement.
This website is still a work in progress, just as I am. I want to keep revising myself into a better person. I’m exploring the world, learning about tech along the way, and documenting my own adventures as they unfold. Also… please don’t attack my site right now. I’m not quite skilled enough to defend it yet. I swear, I respect all the real coders out there.
Here’s to the beginning of something new. Thanks for reading.
