 So I think it's about time I introduced myself. My name is Matt and up until Feb last year I was a truck driver. In Feb I decided to go back to my first love and change careers back into IT. To be specific I want to become a Software developer with a focus on security. I have a huge interest in making secure apps that work towards securing the future for our children.  I like the outdoors and hanging out with the family whenever I can.  I will continue to use this blog to document my journey learning Software Development and showcasing any work I complete.  Thanks for reading this short intro :)
