My name is Rick Picolli, 30 years old, and I am a psychologist.

I always thought that I wanted to help people and by doing that, I thought that psychology was the best way to achieve this and I really liked studying people, but when I started working as a psychologist treating people in a clinic or when I started work with human resources, I discovered that this wasn’t something that makes me happy in my daily life, so I starting thinking about what could make me happy and I discover coding.

I really like the idea of creating something from nothing and this creation could help or make difference in people’s life, so that is why I became so passione about it.

I didn't have any experience with programming before, so it has been quite a challenge for me, but I know that with my hard work, I can do it.
