I have been in tech for 8 years. The journey has been no less than a roller-coaster ride. There is so much to unfold about my tech career.
It all started in school trying to move a blob about 250 pixels right and about 400 pixels down until it reached the wall. That was the first kick I got. Afterwards, printing “Hello World” was pretty insane for a child. That was the second kick for me and I have not looked back ever since.
Let me walk you through my experiences!
