Tell us about your journey throughout your CS career.

I'm a software engineer in Canada with about 1 YOE that specializes in full-stack web development. Initially got started with MS Batch, then Python, then TS and Go. One of my goals is to master Rust this summer :)

I studied STEM, but got bored of it, and I was already coding for a while (started with C at age 11). I really fell in love with programming when I learned python, it made it fun.

I've been working as a software engineer for the past 7 years now, started by freelancing for 2 years, then moved on to be a backend engineer, then a solutions architect and integration expert. Now I'm just a full stack web dev in charge of our mobile app, which I hope to move to a native codebase soon.
