About Christopher Atonal

My name is Christopher Atonal. I recently got back into the academic field. I always had a passion for Programming back in college when I was majoring in Marketing. Marketing wasn\'t for me because when I got my first internship, it was completely different than what I thought it would be, I decided to drop marketing and enter the blue collar world. I worked in construction for a year or so. Eventually I got tired and knew I was destined for more than working in construction. Now instead of working with my hands all this time. I wanted to work with my brain. Now I look forward to beginning my career in the tech world.
