## Summary

Vlad Pasca started coding at 15 in Python and then switched to web development. He learned HTML and CSS from Freecodecamp and built a few front-end projects. He was able to build responsive websites using media query in CSS and this helped him get the job. He told a start-up developer on Reddit that he was looking to work on some projects during the summer.
