I am a web developer and code advocate, passionate about programming languages such as JavaScript, Go and Rust.
I've learnt to code about 19 years ago (HTML). It started as a hobby and for the last 5 years coding has been my full time profession.
Currently I work as a web developer instructor and youtuber while I continuously learn new stuff and technologies.
My main focus is on practical teaching and I will help you to take your skills to the next level through real-world projects.
When I am not coding I spend my time with my lovely wife and our little daughter I also like gardening.
