One thing I love doing is helping people, and I believe one of the key ways I do this is through sharing my knowledge and personal experiences. Prior to this time, I had taught myself several programming languages, libraries, and frameworks for web development, considering myself a full-stack developer with knowledge in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Node.js, WordPress, React, and SQL.

However, I felt I needed more - more learning, more practice, more projects, and more connections with people in the industry. Until May 2023, I wasn't a social person, but joining Twitter changed that. There, I saw an opportunity to learn web3 from learnweb3.io. I began the course but faced challenges when it came to deploying my DApp since I needed Ethereum.

My journey took a new direction when I discovered the ALX Software Engineering program for Africans. I immediately applied and got accepted, which marked a new phase in my life as a Software Engineering Student.

Despite the challenges of unreliable electricity in my country, I remain committed to the program and plan to document my journey here on this platform. I will share my progress, experiences, and insights on becoming a Software Engineer and learning web3.

I invite anyone looking to transition into software engineering or web3 development to follow my journey. Whether you are self-taught or considering teaching yourself, my posts will provide relevant content and valuable resources.

Through this platform, I make a commitment to stay accountable by sharing what I learn. Please feel free to share your thoughts and comments on my posts, as your engagement will keep me motivated and focused on pursuing my dream.
