Welcome to Learn Programming! My name is Benji Asperheim, and I'm a passionate full-stack developer with over a decade of experience in the tech industry. I originally come from the cold and scenic area of Northern Minnesota, but am now based out of Austin, TX. I became interested in IT and coding through Python scripting, and, fueled by a curiosity to build and a desire to solve complex problems, I eventually focused on web development. Throughout my career, I've honed my skills across a broad spectrum of technologies including React JS, Angular, Node.js, Docker, and various DevOps tools. Additionally, I have extensive experience in orchestrating DigitalOcean droplets, setting up managed databases in the platform, and leveraging S3 interfaces/APIs for DigitalOcean Spaces. My journey in programming began with a desire to create 2D game engine concepts and ideas using PyGame for Python. Since then, I've transitioned through various roles, from backend to frontend web development, and even into the intricacies of cloud infrastructure and database management. I improved user experiences with responsive Angular applications and managed end-to-end CRUD operations integrating PostgreSQL. I also dove deep into MongoDB and spearheaded initiatives in video processing with FFmpeg, showcasing my versatility and willingness to do whatever it takes to become a better programmer! Learn Programming is not just my portfolio but a platform to share my journey and the insights I've gained along the way. Here, I'll be blogging about everything from basic programming concepts to advanced development techniques. My goal is to empower you with knowledge, inspire with innovative coding solutions, and contribute to a community passionate about technology. Check out my UpWork profile for more details!
