About
In my youth I used to play a lot of video games, specifically there was one game that I played more than the other, GTA San Andreas Multiplayer (SAMP). After some time, I realized that I could make my own game server for SAMP. At that time SAMP was using old scripting language named PAWN. I didn't know anything about scripting or programming, but I was eager to learn. That's how my love for programming started. I liked the idea that I can make anything in GTA virtual world. I can make a house, a bridge, a skyscraper, even Eiffel tower. Soon after my high school adventure began, and I was introduced to C++ programming. Which, by my standards at the time, was massive downgrade since we were only creating console applications and solving math problems while I was creating buildings, text draws, roleplay systems etc. Soon after enrolling into high school, I joined INOVA which was insider innovation group. There I learned a lot about robotics, circuit boards, sensors, and programming in general. After few projects I wanted more knowledge, I wanted to create more real-world applications but in high school I hit the wall, so I started researching on my own and that’s when I found Algebra University. After finishing high school, I enrolled in Software Engineering course at the Algebra university. At the university I learned a lot about other programming languages like JavaScript, C#, Java and Kotlin. Also, I was excited when we started creating desktop and web applications because it was close to my idea of programming. Create new and exciting things. In the meantime, I’ve got part time job at CroHerze Community. First, I was working on SAMP scripts, but soon after I was asked about working as Linux system administrator. At that point I didn’t know anything about administrating on Linux systems, but I accepted the challenge. I learned a lot about Linux structure, available packages, and programs. To this day I still help with network and web configuration. At this point in my life, I still haven't had enough, and I want to learn more about programming languages and new technologies. Currently I'm working on few small projects in PHP and Python.
