Mindblown: a blog about me, Austin VanDenPlas.

After graduation, I hope to begin my career in a role where I can use both technical and communication skills. I am interested in software development, business analysis, data analytics, and technology-related sales. I want to continue learning, gaining experience, and contributing to a team.

One helpful resource for learning programming is YouTube. Video tutorials can make difficult concepts easier to understand because they show examples step by step. I often use videos when learning new tools, reviewing coding concepts, or troubleshooting errors.

SkillSwap is a full-stack web application project built using React, Django, and PostgreSQL. The idea behind the project is to allow users to trade skills with others in their community. For example, one person could offer tutoring while another offers help with design, coding, or another service.

Technology has always interested me because it gives people the ability to solve problems in creative ways. Through my computer science coursework, I have learned how programming, databases, web design, and software development all work together to create useful applications.
