Hi everyone! My name is Ervis, and I'm thrilled to be here at Udemy, ready to guide you through the exciting world of building apps by coding along.
My passion for programming is fueled by a strong foundation in mathematics and data structures. While I consider myself a .Net developer at heart, thanks to the vibrant Microsoft ecosystem, I'm a firm believer in continuous learning and constantly expand my horizons by exploring new languages, paradigms, methodologies, and ideas.
When I'm not diving into code or sharing my knowledge on video, you can find me lost in a good book or exploring new corners of the world. My love for travel and reading fuels my creativity and keeps me inspired to approach things from different angles.
I'm excited to embark on this journey with all of you and turn your programming aspirations into reality!
