I'll start: I beautify businesses and make them known to the right people. To the people who need to know about them.
Happy and proud to be a marketer 💪

For kiddos, I'd say being a programmer is like being a chef that makes recipes for computers to follow. We write the step-by-step instructions in a special language the computer understands, so it knows exactly what to do - just like a recipe tells a chef how to make a tasty meal! And when we put all those instructions together just right, we can create games, apps, and all sorts of cool digital stuff. So coding is kind of like cooking up fun things, but with keyboards instead of ovens!

When kids ask what I do, I tell them my job is teaching computers how to be smart, just like their teachers help them learn new things every day. Sometimes the computers get confused like they do, but I'm there to help them figure things out, just like their teachers are always there to help them.
As a doctor, I explain to a child that my duty is to help people feel better when they are ill.
