Hello World!

I'm Ephraim, a budding fullstack Dev from Nairobi, Kenya currently working as a web and mobile technology trainer at a college in my hometown.

I remember when I decided to learn how to code almost 2years ago and how overwhelmingly new(and strange) everything seemed at that time, and how many times I told myself this*coding* wasn't for me, and the only reason I kept at it was reading about how similar other people's journey learning how to code was,and ohh boy! I'm I glad I did.

I'm now a self-taught dev still learning whose gainfully employed teaching other people how to code, thanks to all the awesome devs who take time off their busy schedule to put up a blog podcast tutorial sharing their knowledge with the world.

Glad to join such an amazing community and can't wait to publish my first article on the things I've learned teaching/learning how to code :-)

Always a pleasure meeting a fellow African coder:-).

I was in IT but as a network admin, never knew I could learn to code on my own, access to info i guess.
