Hey everyone, I'm a teacher at freeCodeCamp. I am a long-time fan of CodeNewbie and have participated in some of their Twitter chats over the years. I am not sure how much I'll write here on the new CodeNewbie site, but I wanted to introduce myself. I look forward to reading your writing, and hope you all have a fun, insightful time.

Hello everyone! I have been a long time follower of CodeNewbie and Dev. I was super excited by the merger of the two a while back and I can only imagine what this community will grow into.

I have been in development for a decade now, mostly within the AWS ecosystem, but have been doing more and more with Hybrid cloud and multi-cloud things. I am very excited to continue sharing my knowledge with this inclusive community.

Hey y'all! I'm a former bootcamp graduate and have been working as a software engineer who primarily works with Ruby on Rails for 7 months now. I went through a 14 month long and arduous job search before landing my current role, where I now sit on the other side of interviews!

My passion for blogging was sparked over on DEV nearly 2 years ago now. Writing for the CodeNewbie tag there was one of my favorite things to do, so I'm really excited to be here and help contribute to this amazing community and resource for CodeNewbies!
