I started writing HTML at 10 years old because I wanted to make the prettiest NeoPets profile page, back when <marquee> was still a thing. I continued coding to make the prettiest Xanga and MySpace pages. Then I started a boring data entry/analysis job and thought, hey, I may as well make VBA code so I can do my job with a button. Now I'm a CMS and LMS developer and learning to code JavaScript for a text-based browser game, plus learning PHP for better WordPress customization.
