Hello World v2.0.0!
I've been telling myself to get back into writing for the past few years now and well...I'm doing it!
Right, where are my manners. My name is Kunwar Gill and I've been in the software space for almost 10 years now. I've had the opportunity to write programs for Blast Furnaces that turn iron into steel, Plastic Injection Machines that could pump out 120 bottles in 3 seconds, Automatic Train Systems that were always on time, Point-of-Sale systems for over 15,000 restaurants and my own fun indie apps. About five years ago I decided it was time to shift my talents into Product Management. Becoming a Product Manager helped me branch out and grow in ways I never imagined. I love being a PM and enjoy the daily thrill of being at the epicenter of the software, marketing, sales, and customer support.
I used to have a blog that I kept updated with my developer learnings but over time I didn't post as much as I should have because I made the excuse of being too busy with life.
So what's going to be different this time? Well I read somewhere that
smart people read and smarter people write
. I figure it's time to challenge myself again and get back into writing about subjects I'm passionate (or not) about. So this time around I'll be posting here and I'll make more of a commitment to share my learnings and thoughts regularly.
Other things about me:
- Outside of my work life I'm a proud dad to my 2 year old daughter.
- My favourite tv shows are : Seinfeld, The Office and Community
- I like watching expensive fancy sports car and wrist watches videos on youtube
