My Journey
My love and proclivity for technology began as a child navigating DOS on my IBM 8088. Soon I was building computers for a neighbor in exchange for components I could use to upgrade or build my own computers. In school I was introduced to programming (Logo and Pascal).
Regrettably, I didn't pursue development. Work, college, and life took over; and the extent of my programming was occassionally modifying Excel scripts in VBA. A recent experience building a website (BeyondLWOP.org) using WPBakery has reignited my passion to code. In spite of using a page builder, I was quite surprised by what I accomplished without formal web development training.
25+ years later, I regret not pursuing it sooner. At age 47 with many responsibilities, I can't imagine this will ever become a career. Nonetheless, I am pursuing it for my own pleasure and well-being.
