About Justin Parker

Being able to create a program from scratch and having the ability to go back, revise it, and build upon it are the reasons why I love coding. I love the idea that each program can evolve, continuously improving and adapting to solve new problems. This is the same outlook that I have as I continue to learn more and more about programming. We live in a world where technology is always advancing and I am eager to advance my knowledge with it. Ever since I was a kid, I was fascinated with how software worked and would ponder how our everyday lives could be improved through programming. And as I grew older, I came to realize that, however big or small, there are a multitude of issues that are waiting to be resolved through software development. Although everyone may have a different approach or different answer to resolving these issues, I intend to find an answer of my own.As I continue to learn more and more within this industry, I hope to become a part of not just a company, but also a community that invests in me just as much as I invest in them.
