Hi, my name is John Schulz and I'm going tell ya'll a little about myself. I was born in the beautiful city of St. Louis, Missouri - and I've lived here just about ever since. I'm 27 years young, and about just as wise some would say.Here's how it all started:
I born at St. Mary's Hospital, December 12th, 1988. I remember that cold morning, just like it was yesterday.. .. Anywho, I grew up in a house with an older brother and sister, (Justin, and Jessica respectively) in University City. Played soccer, went to school, and learned the ropes the hard way(being the youngest and all).
When I made it to Highschool, I focused on sleeping, video-gaming, soccer ⚽ and golf⛳ (nothing to brag about if you look at our season records). At the end of it all I had enough learning to get me into college. Went to Truman State University in Northeast Missouri. Had one hell of a time, but I couldn't figure out which major was right for me, and found myself back in St. Louis before too long.
After moving back in to town from college, I found myself bouncing around to different jobs here and there. I've helped rehab houses, worked at a fitness center, a large company that specializes in printing healthcare forms, and several restaurants. I've been working at a wonderful restaurant called "The Fountain on Locust" for the past 6 years and counting. I am a server/manager and I really do enjoy where I work. After persuing different ways to back into school for technology, my opportunity arose through Launchcode! Taking classes in programming and web development over the Summer of 2016, I think I've really found what I want to do.
Launchcode has provided me with a new opportunity to restart and "launch" a new career. My goal is to take the awesome skills that I've been learning and work with Launchcode to find an internship to build upon my skills and advance into what I hope to be a new career. I know I'm going to have to put in a lot of hard work, and take time out of my social life to accomplish these goals - but it's time to start fulfilling my potential. to infinity and beyond!!
