I'm a Bachelor of Commerce graduate who fell inlove with computers many years back when my manager introduced me to VB5. Back then we were excited about the first cellphones and laptops running windows 95. The book was 500+ pages and I had to convert our Pick & System Builder app to a nice GUI. I'm very curious and that has led me to where I am at today, developing my first database driven web app called Project.Show using ExtJS to publishing my first Google Store App, my experiences with Android and JQuery Mobile including JQuery and Javascript now. I've learned how to research too and am I very good project manager. My first intranet app eFas was however the crux of my career when it comes to skills and experience in software development with MySQL. I love software development, I live software development and I drive myself to know as much as I can about anything I'm curious about. I have done all the software development projects based on knowledge I seeked and found myself. It takes a lot of dedication and hard work to read each and every software development book, but its worth it at the end.

I've just read a book now about Angular. I like making things easy for myself thus if I don't find a RAD tool especially for repetitive work, I will build one. I'm finalizing one now to create CRUD JQuery Mobile apps without writing a single line of code. The best thing is, the prototypes can be compiled to hybrid apps with PhoneGap Build, just like that. Develop and run on the same mobile device.

I've discovered that fear closes people to a lot of things and we hold ourselves back being held by it. Thus the sooner you believe you can't do something, the sooner everything will work towards that belief. Believe in yourself at all times because you can do anything you set your mind to it.

I have three kids, the best joys in the world. East London, South Africa is currently home.
