My goal is finally achieved. Throughout my service in the Army, I’ve always been a leader, decision maker, and a tech guy obsessed with the latest devices and software. Today, I’m working as a Java software engineer, and I get to show off all these elements of who I am.I started learning to code when I was a young officer, though it was always more of a hobby than a career focus. After 7+ years serving in the military, and continuing to pursue that hobby, I realized software engineering was the right field for me.So, i've took action, paid my penalties and reverse my contract to become permanent military forever and I left the Army two months later. Today, I’m working as a Java developer with the amazing team and am getting into web development. I’m familiar with a variety of programming skills, including HTML, CSS, Typescript and Angular, but I’m always adding new skills to my repertoire. I’m also eager to meet other software engineers and ambitious young people in the area, so feel free to connect!One of my favorite quotes is:"There is no reasonable excuse for doing anything less than your best." - Robert C.
