I loved to play arcade games during our summer holidays and back in... 1986, my school acquired a number of ZX Spectrum. My mom was clever enough to ask me if I wanted to see how games were developed and... although I didn't learn to code games, I caught the bug... and found out programming was my passion (yeah... till I actually met girls, LOL!).
From there... I have been programming ever since, through technical high school and a few years in university... I have been coding for... almost 30 years and I still love it and learn something every day.
