Hi I'm Charles!

I'm a self-taught full-stack developer. I have a passion for personal development, programming, and fitness.

What's my story?

After graduating college and feeling unhappy and uncomfortable in my own skin. I decided to embark on my fitness journey. I dedicated my time to learning everything I could about nutrition and fitness. It was the first time in my life that I truly began to understand 'drive'. Because without drive, your dreams are just dreams. Fitness taught me the importance of goal setting, self-discipline, consistency, and the idea of marginal improvements. So I applied these to other areas of my life. I realized that if I could slowly improve my body, then I could do the same with my mind. This led me down the road of personal development.

My passion for coding came just after my four years of service in the United States Navy. As I was looking for my next endeavor, I happened to stumble across a person on YouTube who was a self taught programmer. I reached out to him and asked him to teach me. I found myself often getting stuck on a problem for days, but it never bothered me and I was determined to figure out a solution. This was when I knew that programming was for me. I'm currently applying the lessons I've learned along my fitness journey to programming, and it has brought me here—to building this website. From the bottom of my heart, I just want to say:

Thank you for taking the time to visit!
