Who am I?
My name is Kevin Greene and I am a recent graduate of the College of Western Idaho. I am originally from a small town in North Carolina, but I moved to North Dakota at the height of the oil and gas industry. After the global pandemic I was forced to find an alternative line of work. My experience with computers was limited to gaming consoles until around 2018 when I purchased my first gaming computer. I had no intentions of using it for anything other than video games. In the summer of 2020 having moved to the great state of Idaho, I researched degrees offered at The College of Western Idaho. I was interested in the software development program so I applied. Within the first weeks of the course I knew I wanted to become a developer and even with my limited computer knowledge I am capable of creating projects like the one you are inside of now. I am fully capable of learning whatever skills are necessary to create a variety of projects.
