My name is Concepta. I am thrilled to be part of the Dev Mastery community. I am looking forward to gaining a deeper understanding of industry-level coding concepts and apply that knowledge to build more impactful projects at work. It's nice to meet you all!

I’m replacing the old “Start Here” course with something new: Developer OS. This is not only an intro module for new joiners but a mindset reset every developer in the program should go through, even if you’ve been here a few months already. I cover the shift that takes you from just coding features to thinking and operating like a senior engineer: - the #1 skill I learned that changed my career - the 3 types of developers and which one you should strive to become - statistics for developer - why volume and speed matter more than perfection - how to become a well rounded developer instead of a one dimensional coder If you want the rest of the program to actually click, start here. This will give you the mental operating system that drives everything else.

My name is Kaushal, I am in Canada. So exciting to see a literal international community haha! I have worked in the financial sector as a Software Engineer for the past 5 years with the last 3 as a Fullstack. Like many of you, I am also struggling to level up my technical skills while juggling a full-time job. My top 3 goals are: 1. To accept an Intermediate Backend or Fullstack position at a Health/Wellness Tech startup earning $140+ 2. Develop a robust portfolio of projects I can speak to with authority and ownership; I want to work on my own startup as a solo founder in the near future 3. Make at least 2 strong connections in this community! Outside of being a Software Engineer I: - Love taking my dog on walks and car rides, she's a little salt and pepper Terrier mix (will attach a pic) - Enjoy picking up a solid story or reading non-fiction; I finally decided to start reading through One Piece and taking another shot at The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People - Work on home improvement projects, I just moved into a new place and it is so much fun to finally have control of my space! Looking forward to meeting you all and taking this journey together!
