Life has a funny way of bringing us full circle, doesn’t it?

After a whirlwind adventure in the world of freelance writing, I’ve decided it’s time to return to my first love: programming.

Don’t get me wrong, my adventure as a writer has been nothing short of amazing!

I’ve met incredible people, learned valuable skills, and even managed to pay the bills doing something I enjoyed. But sometimes, you just know when it’s time for a change.

Going Back to Memory Lane

Let me take you back a bit.

Picture a younger me, hunched over a computer while my friends were out living their best summer lives. While they were busy making memories at parties and beach trips, I was busy making memories with lines of code.

Yep, that was me — the kid who chose programming over dancing every time.
