Introduction

Hey everyone! I’m excited to share with you my year end review for 2020.

2020 has been about staying strong mentally! 😃

I’m glad to say that whilst 2020 might have been a tough year, I was able to achieve things I am proud of 💪.

I’m excited at what 2021 is going to bring.

Personal Development

What an amazing course!

I enjoyed every bit of it, made new friends, improved the quality of my network and started on the path to becoming a CTO.

Some feedback from my fellow soji’s that made me happy

Pull requests

2021: What’s the Plan?

  • Help more engineers become better communicators
  • Continue on my CTO path
