to innovate around the space and the global reach I am excited about Innovation and I like the prospects that web 3 has in terms of providing that Innovation to digital landscape and I'm just excited to be a part of that whole development I had about brige for my sister and when I said my sister like because I see the grow I heard about we three Bridge from a friend who heard from a friend is basically a chain and I like the idea majorly for the vision what web3 stands and web3 Bridge um represents what they stand to achieve I heard about um world Tre Bridge around 20 2021 from a blockchain community blockchain unn community and also GA G Tech Community I heard about web 3 Bridge from an alumni just like every other person and uh uh in as much as I didn't know how it worked I got a lot of testimonies from past alumni on how grinding and how uh specific web3 bridge is in training their students to be the best web3 developers there can be so I heard about web 3 Bridge from an alumin of web 3 bridge that was a friend and he was very emphatic about me joining the program because he said the curriculum was stopnot he said it was intensive and it would give me like a solid platform to start a Tre career my experience during getting into the program was smooth it was timely also got Mees when we were supposed to get them the tests were good good timing as well even though I wish it was more I was been when I was out solving the interview question it was a serious one because trying to meet up with a deadline in building a full web application and as it was it was nice it was fun mixed feelings um at some point you confident at some point I was will I will I get in but the the whole process was seamless the the organizers tried as much as possible to make sure that um they help you along the way I was actually curious I was like should I should I not because I was asking myself even if I write this in am I will I get this this uh or the opportunity to be part of the um cour but I don't know what pushed me so I just tried my best and it was a nice one before I applied for web 3 bridge I had been away from web 2 for some time so I was a bit anxious cuz I wasn't sure I still had the skills to get into the program so I had to spend some time practicing web to just to make sure that I was on power for the test it was a bit nering to see that to see
