I first got into coding at 15 after chatting with the admin of an MMORPG private server I played on often over IRC on QuakeNet. Eventually I discovered that there was more than QuakeNet, and a group of moderators from forum network I followed had an IRC server. There I made a couple of friends and started learning PHP, getting into building my own websites.

I enjoyed it a lot, and I decided that as I got older I'd start my own company building apps! It grew from there, getting my first job locally and a couple of years later joined a startup.
