John Nnamchi
Hi, I'm John Nnamchi! I'm a lifelong learner with almost a decade of experience as both a software developer and educator. After going through an amazing journey in Software Engineering, I realized technology is a truly phenomenal tool that can give individuals immense power to make an impact. However, l also realized the path to such power is way more complicated than it needs to be. Hence, I set out on the challenge to make fundamental software skills accessible to everyone. I believe every human on the planet has both the right and ability to feel empowered when they think about technology, and this course was designed to achieve this goal.
