Before joining Hackbright Academy, Yuri was a successful classical violinist. She had a full schedule of concerts to play every weekend and maintained a violin studio of pre-college students. While she loved playing violin and teaching, she knew this was not her end game. Her interest in software engineering sparked when she started learning HTML and CSS to build her personal website. She found similarities between learning programming languages and learning music, and suddenly she was hooked. She continued to learn on her own, and after moving to the Bay Area, she enrolled in Hackbright to further deepen her knowledge. Upon graduation, she looks forward to pursuing a career in software engineering and continuing building her skills.
