Frontend developer in progress

I'm making a total change in my life, not only in my career but also at a personal level. I'm 36 years old and for the first time in my life I'm enjoying what I'm doing. That's why I want to pursuit this goal of make a living out of programming and land my first IT job. Before this I had several different jobs, including working for an international trade company, and just a year away of becoming a lawyer.
