Who Am I?

A lifelong lover of technology from Ontario, Canada with passions that range from Archery to Photography. Programming has always been a part of my life, starting with programming in video games as a kid learning LUA scripting leading to my professional career in Web Development that started in 2023.

As a person I share the uncanny trait from my father to become friends with almost anyone in the room very quickly which helps with integrating in teams tremendously. While I really enjoy solitude while programming, tackling logical problems and learning new things… there is a part of me that loves to connect with others. I am very much a team player that prefers to see everyone grow.

The Journey So Far...


Going back to college!

Going back to college is probably the largest personal gamble I have ever made. When I enrolled with Durham College’s Web Development program I went all in on my passions.

Takeaway

Leaving a stable job, selling my car, and using what savings I had, I became totally committed to my new career path and not for one single second have I had any regrets.
