A couple months ago Andres Meneses and I sat down at a busy Adams Morgan cafe in the heart of Washington, DC to discuss his success as a frontend developer. Incredible to his story is how he navigated from a successful long-term position at The World Bank to a coding boot camp to gain a foothold in the web development world. His background is one of the many success stories popping up from mid-career individuals making a jump into the world of data science/technology development.
