Persistence is key...
On the road to becoming a developer, there are many paths to take. The one I ended up on — I'll admit — was a privileged one.
I was fortunate enough to start working for a company that truly keeps its workers in mind. I developed my skills from the inside, building knowledge of both the business and its people from the very start. I began as a call centre advisor, supporting customers with broadband, TV, and PSTN (what we'd call landlines).
This company offers extensive development opportunities — but only for those who seek them and work for them. At first, the goal was simple: get off the phones and move into something more fulfilling.
Fast forward 8 years, and here I am:
a
Software Engineer at that same company, chasing nothing but
a dream I had in my head and a hobby I nurtured at home —
"I wonder how this is done..."
This is the first of many blog entries I'll share as I build my website and document my journey.
Thanks for stopping by and being part of the ride.
