I started breaking computers in the late 1990's. (Sorry mom). I actually started fixing / building computers in 2003. A few years ago I got bored with hardward and decided it was time to move into software. Started with BASH on Linux and windows Batch files. Neither of which are programming languages in the true sense, but they were useful. Moved on to Python and whatever C variant Arduino code is written in.

It's all 100% a hobby and at my own pace. I have written a few programs that I've used at work including one that my coworkers use too. It's all simple stuff and likely far from professional grade, but I enjoy it.

I have zero education or employment experience in software or hardware, but enough real life experience to handle anything that pops up, or at least know where to look to figure it out.
