Coding since I Remember myself ... went through Basic on Commodore 64 to C# on a 24 cores AMD cpu... In between worked with c, c++, java, assembler, php, pascal, JavaScript, SQL based DB's and a bit of NoSQL as well.

Love software, and I'm usually fidgeting around with technology software and hardware on my free time.
