Experience as a Developer

I have always loved to build things. Back in University, I was introduced to my first programming course, Visual Basic 6, and was fascinated by how much you could build just by typing in a few lines of code and watching your app come to life! I pursued my curiosity further by picking up Java and learning the concepts of object-oriented programming.

Upon graduating, I took a full-time job as a software developer in a card payments company where I learned how to program with C++. I also became interested in mobile development and learned how to use cross platform frameworks such as Cordova. Today, I design and build enterprise software primarily using the .NET Core and .NET Framework as well as ASP.NET (Web forms and MVC)

Experience as an Instructor

I love to teach, for me it is personally satisfying to help someone navigate through the unknown and eventually gain mastery in the chosen area. While I have taught many classes offline and in-person, Udemy gives me an opportunity to bring some of that experience online. A major advantage with me is that I teach from a real-world perspective and this gives my students the best chance at being able to apply the knowledge they gain from my courses practically. This makes it easy for them become productive (if they already work in tech) or positions them to get a job in tech if they are just starting out in their careers.
