My advice is to be patient and continue your education. You need to realize if you learn enough about the world around you, people will beat a path to your door.
The first phase in programming is learning how to code. The second phase is learning why. Once you get to the second phase, people will ask you to help them.
Many years ago, I bought an early personal computer. I quickly realized what it lacked, and I wrote it, primarily because I needed it for my own work. Pretty soon the manufacturer heard what I had done and asked to see it. Over the next five years I made six million dollars.
I tell you this just so you know it's possible -- but you need to be able to figure out what's missing, what people need. Being able to code, by itself, doesn't assure success. You need to know why to code.
