14-16: Inconsistent punctuation in persona attributes.

Line 14 ends with a period ("small team)"), while line 16 does not ("on-the-job experience"). For consistency, either both should have trailing punctuation or neither should.

✨ Proposed fix for consistent punctuation

"Education:"/line containing "No formal CS or development background;
self-taught from tutorials and on-the-job experience" does not; make them
