Bryan

I'm an aspiring tech enthusiast currently embarking on an exciting journey into AI programming development. My career has been deeply rooted in the automation industry, where I've gained hands-on experience in everything from electrical wiring and product testing to field service, programming, design, and even tech support. This diverse background has given me a unique perspective on how technology is implemented, and I've witnessed the incredible shift from traditional hardwired solutions to today's PC-driven applications. One of the biggest takeaways from my time in automation is understanding when to leverage technology and when human expertise is paramount for the best results. My recent completion of a 6-month coding bootcamp focused on the core concepts of AI has opened my eyes to the immense potential of this field. I'm the first to admit I'm still on a learning curve, but I'm genuinely thrilled by the current state of AI and firmly believe that, when thoughtfully applied, it holds the key to groundbreaking solutions.
