I'm Bobby, a C++ programmer and problem solver!
In 2021, I got used to figuring out the basics of C++. In 2022, I put a lot of work into developing my knowledge of DSA, and improving my problem solving skills, with a fair degree of success. In 2023, I put a lot of working into diversifying the skill-set by making really challenging and credible projects (to be released in 2024!)! I'm comfortable with the Azure Platform, C++, C#, React, Flask and SQL - but looking forward to learning more in the second half of 2024!
2024 Plans: Updated on July 21st 2024
- Receive the AZ-204 Azure Developer Associate Cert (UPDATE: ACHIEVED on 19th April 2024)
- Deploy my project via Azure! Uses an SQL Server and SQL Database, with a Static Web App for the React front and an App Service for the C# backend. (UPDATE: ACHIEVED)
- After the project has been deployed, build a solid understanding of the MERN stack, and demonstrate this in further projects (UPDATE: Completed a project using Flask and TailwindCSS+Flowbite for the CS50x: link)
- While working on the personal projects, I want to successfully interview with a company in the SoCal area. Ideally, I'll find myself in a corporate culture that encourages continual self-development, and rewards people who are driven and productive! (I also hope to be continually learning and evolving on-the-job!) (UPDATE: Very tough job market!)
Given the lack of interest in my resume (and the lack of a qualification), I'm going to be working on an alternative path into the tech industry - and will be starting CalBright's free course for the CompTIA A+ from July 23rd, 2024. I'm planning to work through this quickly and efficiently - looking at the expected content, it looks like I've already learned a lot about the cloud already!
2023: Oct-Dec: Picked up the AZ-900 Azure Certification. Now working on the AZ-204 while looking at using Azure to deploy an exciting upcoming .NET/React project! Jul-Sep: Continued with the C#.NET language, and really dove deeply into React for the front-end of the project (2024 release!) Apr-Jun: Started work on an upcoming project (2024 release, but it's quite big!). Learned and became comfortable with C#.NET Core and SQL Jan-Mar: I completed this Udemy course by Mostafa Saad Ibrahim in this link to finish DSA studies: link
2022: Oct-Dec: Review of all beginner-intermediate topics in C++, deeper dive into OOP - and find and select interesting project to help me break into the industry! DEEPER DIVE DONE, but I have selected WebDev-based projects, with an eye on diving deeper into the MERN stack Jul-Oct: Worked on Coding Interview Questions, and problem solving skills with this course Feb-Jun: Masteedr Algorithms used in C++ (basic sorting, graphs, binary searches) using this course Jan-mid Feb: Consolidated knowledge of most major DS (Arrays, Vectors, Stack, Queue, Binary Search Trees, Heaps, Tries, Hash Tables) from this course
