This week I hit 8 years on Dev. March 5 is my anniversary. This year I'm preparing this post ahead of time with a list of what I've done here. I joined DEV while trying to break into tech. Since then I landed my first role finished that contract. Had some sets back but back to hunting.

DEV is one of the most welcoming Developer communities. It's a great place to meet people and learn. I lurked here for a long time till I started posting.
Lurk if you don't want to write but you'll get more out of the community if you comment on posts and engage with each other.
