Hi Steemit! Am Sampson, a Full Stack web developer and a mobile app developer @speedware on steemit. Happy to be here

Hello everyone, I'm Sampson, I just turned 19 yesterday.

I am a Nigerian, I was also born in Nigeria and I also stay in a small city in Nigeria. Lol, so u see am all Nigerian.

Before now you will always find me on stackoverflow trying to get a solution to a problem or on youtube trying to learn about Artificial Intelligence or other new technologies or watching tutorials on web development or android development. I am self taught developer. I just got out what you might refer to as High school in US but referred to as Secondary school here, then I decided to learn to be a developer after being exposed to a bit of QBASIC (which is a programming language but really very low in functionalities), So I got tired of learning QBASIC and then I decided to learn something bigger then I grabbed C++.

First C++ Book

Phew it was very challenging but after a couple of months of learning and trying to build a software with it, I started learning web development and the rest they say is history.

Right now I am fluent in JAVA, C++, PYTHON, PHP, JAVASCRIPT and some markup language like XML and HTML. Right now I build websites, web apps and Android apps. I built an amazing app am very proud of for a company in Nigeria although am not allowed to give details of the app just yet. I also run a company here which provides a platform for schools and teachers to help them handle there students and allows for efficiency in handling the school activities. Here is blog post I made using my blog I started sometime about an older version of the platform a year ago.

I also participated in a competition by facebook titled BOTS FOR MESSENGER CHALLENGE which lead me to build this amazing chatbot which uses Natural language processing to understand which I studied during my Artificial Intelligence research (You can say its a digital robot. its called Retina. It acts as your personal movies and Tv series guide. You can search for movies based on the year it was acted, the actors , the name its genre or just by the latest. It also gives you a short description of the movie and even gets you the trailer which you can watch right there. This also applies to Tv series. You can also decide to just have a chat with it. here is the link to the bot.

Myself aside, I found out about Blockchain some couple of months ago you know my normal way by always looking for new technologies on YOUTUBE and then I finally learnt about Bitcoin, because I have heard about it but haven't really understood how it works until learning about the blockchain. Then along that line I learnt about Altcoins but havent really known much about how steem until recently. I was so impressed with the system so I decided to join. And here I am Introducing myself.

I am really happy with platform. And am gonna be sticking with it. I hope to make a lot of friends and connections and adding it as another step in my entrepreneurship journey. I really love entrepreneurship, Life just doesn't feel so interesting for me if am not doing something entrepreneurial and most of all to give you guys the best of my write-ups. I also hope to learn more about steem and the great community it has here. Thank you for the opportunity!
