In this interview, Dion D. Lewis shares his inspirational journey beginning in the southside of Chicago, and eventually leading him to become a YouTuber and a Web Developer. Dion explains that anyone can come from anywhere and code, regardless of their background. Dion himself is living proof of that and motivation to all that hear his story.
Dion is a self taught Full Stack Web Developer and Founder of Code Pioneers. Personally I've been a long time subscriber and fan to his youtube channel and have learned a bunch of insights around developer tools, platform installations and even the mindset shift through a career transition.
