hello, i'm
rahul kumar

I am a Software Engineer based in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
After 10 incredible years full of adventure and travel, and having led a small travel company, the pandemic in 2020, gave me time to think about retaking my childhood dream of becoming a software engineer.

In the past I had worked with a few online tools like Wordpress and Wix but didn’t know much about programming (do you really think using a ready built theme downloaded from themeforest makes you a programmer?). So, I started searching online forums and videos for the correct path and took my first Javascript course on Udemy. Since then I can’t get enough and am always looking for books or articles related to web development.

The more I learn about programming and web development, the more I love it. It offers a ton of room for creativity and brings the best out of me for problem solving. I also love the fact that there is always something new to learn.

I know this is just the beginning and I have a long way to go in this digital world of creations, but I'm in no hurry. I’ll make my own way one step at a time.

knowledge

Apart from the courses included in my degree, I have taken a number of online courses on Udemy, Youtube and like to read articles and blog by many senior web developers in the community, which has immensely improved my coding skills. So far, I have learnt:
