On this episode of the Jason Cavness Experience I talk to Kevin Miller - Coder Conversations We talk about the following Being a Military Brat His journey from working a low paying hotel job to a career in tech Junior developers who struggle to find their first paid position Social media Advice for non tech founders Kevin’s Bio Kevin is from a small town called killeen, Texa by the military base Fort Hood. Kevin lived there most of my life. Kevin found an interest in art and programming through the desire to make video games. Videogames were his first true hobby Kevin focused more on art throughout high school after dabbling with programming because he felt it was too difficult. Kevin eventually decided to shift over to finance because of the promise of big dollars and decided to get a degree in accounting because the local university didn't have a finance degree However, he hated accounting and didn't feel competent. Kevin started working at a hotel in the meanwhile. He then taught himself programming at the hotel while working the night shift. He then took a year off of work to focus on programming full time. Kevin eventually got a job in the industry after tons of applications.
