What I'm looking for

I am looking for a remote PHP/Laravel Developer position that allows me to innovate and grow within a supportive team.

From a young age I have been interested in electronics, computers and programming. I started off teaching myself about hardware and programs starting off with basic, c, perl and later specialising in PHP and Mysql. I have a passion for web application building.

I have always said that a programmer is not the brightest person he/she should be dumb enough not to know when to quit (joking joking).
