From Freelance to Innovator: My 27-Year Software Career Journey


27 years ago, I embarked on a journey as a freelance programmer, driven by passion and curiosity. Today, I stand proud, still a programmer at heart, with a spirit that refuses to settle.


The Hunter-Gatherer in Me:

I chose the path less taken, embracing challenges and new technologies like a hunter-gatherer seeking new horizons. While others may have opted for the comfort of a "farmer's" life, cultivating the same familiar soil, I couldn't resist the thrill of the unknown.


#Clouds, #Servers, #AI, #ML, #DL, #GenAI and Endless Exploration

I've traversed the innovation landscape from servers to the cloud, always seeking the next frontier. My heart beats faster with each new tool, and each new technology that comes my way.


A Life of Purpose:

For me, it's not just about sustenance; it's about living a life of purpose. I solve problems, overcome obstacles, and push boundaries, not just to survive but to thrive.


The Fire Within:

27 years on, the flame of curiosity still burns bright within me. I remain a programmer at heart, forever chasing the next challenge, the next innovation.


Enrich Me on This Journey:

Let's raise a toast to the hunter-gatherers, the innovators, and the innovators. May our paths cross, and may we inspire each other to keep pushing the boundaries of what's possible.
