- Q: Are you down with OOP ?
- A: yea, you know me! o.k, I don't currently know object oriented programming such as Java , but give it time.
- Q: How did you become a web developer after getting a degree in communications?
- A: Well, when I went to college, the internet wasn't what it is today. It was just a gleam in the eye of Tim Berners-Lee , and just beginning its infancy. No-one had heard of HTML and web pages at that time. I do believe that other than possibly cell phones, the internet has changed the way businesses and people communicate more than any other technology. I believe it was a natural progression to where I started and what I am doing today.
