Description
Vincent Vuong started his coding journey back in 2014 at the University of Waterloo, Canada. He was a confused high school student that didn't know what to do, but he had a passion for games, specifically League of Legends. His older sister recommended that he study Computer Science to open up opportunities in the game development world. He took the leap, but his grades were not high enough, and he got deferred to an alternative program called Geomatics. Vincent enrolled in Geomatics at first and later on transferred into Computer Science, where he completed 6 internships (full stack, backend, mobile). Now Vincent works full-time at Lyft as an iOS engineer, and he spends his free time creating content on TikTok and Youtube.Contact Vincent:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vuongvincent96/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@codewithvincent?lang=enYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfwSZMnpzluV01vjf8ujSwQContact Cam:https://www.linkedin.com/in/cameron-blackwood/thecodercareer@gmail.com--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-coder-career/message Hosted on Acast.
