I love learning. Whether its algorithims, programming languages, new frameworks, new technologies, working on improving yourself, the accumulation of all these pieces helped me become the software developer I am today.
It all started with just a series of computer science courses. I quickly discovered the joy of absorbing an inexhaustable fountain of knowledge. I decided to accelerate my learning process later on by attending App Academy, an 1000 hour extensive bootcamp. I learned to build dynamic web and mobile apps using JavaScript, React/React-Native, Redux, Ruby on Rails, Node.Js, Express, HTML5, CSS5, MongoDB and SQL.
I think one of the greatest things about programming is bringing the manifestation of ideas into existence. Programmers break the barrier between conceptualization and a tangible, functional product. We can take what we learned, put pieces together, overcome challenges we face and craft a product to directly impact our world today.
I think that in itself is extremely gratifying.
I am a dancer. Whenever a catchy tune comes on, sometimes I find it irresistable to pop, groove, bobble my head to the song's rhythm. Dance has been a huge part of my life ever since I started 5 years ago. My training and the challenges I overcame as dancer has shaped me to become the person I am today. For that I am very thankful.
My obsession in fried chicken and eating at all the fried chicken places knows no bounds. If you are looking for delicious fried chicken spots, look no further. Ask your fellow fried chicken expert.
When I have a bit of free time, I enjoy going to the gym to maintain an active lifestyle. The exercises I tend to do are swimming, general cardio and weight-lifting.
An unique hobby of mine is planning and leading large social events where I bring friends and mutual acquaintances together. There is just something about harmonizing all these chaotic elements into one uniform setting and seeing everyone have a good time, that brings a lot of joy to me.
I read all sorts of books. When I was smaller, I basically lived in the library. Nowadays, when I am not coding, I like to engross myself in books/Audible(audio recordings). A novel I have recently finished was named "the Book of Joy". The novel entails an enlightening, whimsical conversation between Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu.
Aside from becoming an amazing programmer, my dream is one day becoming a stand-up comedian and using social media outlets like Youtube to inspire others. I want to bring laughter into their lives and use social media and the programming projects I have created to make the world a better place.
