Welcome

 I would like to take this opportunity to say hello to all of you and I hope that this post finds you all happy and healthy. Since you are here I will try to make known to you the person behind the screen and the engine of this blog. 

My name is Daniel Doca, age of 31 a lucky dad of a two and three years old who are currently the fuel in my life. Before I own an PC of my own, I followed an IT course at age of ten. Three years later on my 13th birthday my father gifted me a Pc and that was the start of it. In beginning, my Pc had been used for basic stuff like Paint, Word, simple games, Winamp and movies occasionally because the internet connection into my parents’ house was missing. This seems to be like something disappointing but in fact the missing of an internet connection gave me the opportunity to learn more about the hardware side of the IT since I couldn't access the online platform.

For few years it had been like this and my most focus was on cleaning the pc and try to upgrade it with different parts I could find on friends and family friends. The software aspect was resumed to a basic virus scan, windows install and a bit of defragmentation here and there. Later I joined a Math and IT high school and from there everything changed. I start to focus more into software part, learned about LAN connection (done one in my home in the following weeks after learning at school), I started studying C++, had my first experience with coding in high school and it was truly mind blowing. I realized that despite the fact that I wasn't present when coding had been showed to us somehow it felt quite easy and natural and this sparked an interest for IT domain that stays with me to this day.

However, after high school, life made in some way that I lost touch with IT and education for a few years. When I had my children, I realized that the jobs I used to do for a living where quite time consuming and pay wasn't exceptional and I find myself in front of a huge decision: stay where I was or try to better myself. It hurt very bad that I couldn't afford the life and time I wanted for my family and I decided to join DMU University where I believe I will get all the skills and knowledge that I need to change my life in something better. As you can see, sometimes, live have different plans for us however in the end we have to be resilient and we have to follow our road.
