– Hi Olga, welcome to TechBehemoths! Please tell us a little about yourself. Your background and how did you come to this point in life?

– My name is Olga. I have more than ten years of experience in software development as well as a Ph.D. in Computer science.

I can easily say that IT is in my blood and it was pretty much my predestined path since early childhood because my father was one of the very first developers. The difference between us is that I get to work on a laptop and he wrote code for those huge computers that took up the space of a small apartment.
