Hey everyone! I'm Jeremy Schuurmans -- I'm a former boot camp student and current junior engineer. I love helping other people in their coding journeys because so many people helped (and continue to help) me in mine. I'm looking forward to seeing this space grow!
Programmer by day and author by night. I am passionate about all things development related, but especially Amazon Web Services. I recently created a course about learning AWS by using it.
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.
Hi Brenda,
I saw your recent article on dev.to about how you got a job thru working your Linkedin profile. I would love to find out more. Got 15 minutes to talk. ;)

Excited to be here!
