It's been almost ten years since I started working in the online industry, but my first job wasn't as a developer; I was just a VA. It wasn't long before I became a developer as well, thanks to my experiences in various jobs. My clients have also been diverse because I've been freelancing for quite some time now. So, my experience hasn't been focused on just one technology.
I'm really into full-stack development. That means I know how to build websites from start to finish, from what you see on the screen to all the behind-the-scenes stuff that makes it work. For me, it's not just a job; I actually love coding and making things that are easy and enjoyable for people to use online.
The tech world always changes, so I'm always trying to learn new things. There are always new computer languages and ways of doing things, and I think it's important to keep up. I like taking on tough projects because they help me learn and use what I know in new ways.
Even though I am in this kind of industry, I am still able to balance everything, especially when it comes to my personal life.
Most people here in the Philippines are now working online. Some Filipinos who work online have clients in different countries. Because of this, it also helps the tech scene in the Philippines, and it's not just always relying on the remittances of Filipino workers abroad. All of us Filipinos are proud of this kind of work.
