I began as a self tought programmer back at the day of 286 pc compatibles. I still remember my pc could even display pictures and it took a few seconds for each too!
It was then that I realized I could actually make anything with software and desided to get seriously involved.
Not very long after that, I become the nerd of some computer science class. Not as glorious a position back then as it is nowadays!
A few years down the line and I could finally carry the title Business Applications Programmer - Systems Analyst and I 've even had a few applications released to prove my worth.
Then, one day came that the Internet got invented and the Web too. I was the proud owner of a modem already but had nobody to connect to, so I jumped right in. I built a few personal websites to begin with and soon discovered Web applications.
I always aspire to put my machines to do the hard work for me while I enjoy trying to improve what (supposedly) is already perfect. (who said anything about laying back?)
