I first truly got onto web development during my junior year in university when my friend/mentor of sorts (you know who you are) convinced me to try developing something that I could actually use or enjoy. Thus I embarked on my journey to create a stat tracker site for the popular MOBA game League of Legends. While developing my first site, I learned of the instance gratification that web development could give you, and it helped motivate me even more to continue. Since then I've been hooked on creating webpages and the many other aspects of frontend development.
My primary focus these days have been developing web applications for internal use within IBM. What I find the most enjoyable is when I'm given the opportunity to work with both the design and the development portion of a component. I want things to look nice as well as functional.
