Welcome to my super cool corner of the internet! ๐โจ
I'm Harman Singh Hira but most people call me by my last name, Hira ๐
So, I was born in Chandigarh, India ๐ฎ๐ณ but in my early 20s, I made the big move to the beautiful island of New Zealand ๐ณ๐ฟ. I finished all my studies back home, then added a diploma in Business Management & Leadership here just to keep things spicy ๐โจ
Now rewind to when I was 15... while most of my friends were busy gaming ๐ฎ, I was that one kid messing around with code ๐ป. I started building websites, making templates, and yep, even sold a few for some decent cash ๐ธ. Also had a tech blog that actually made money through Google AdSense at just 16! Crazy right? ๐คฏ Oh, and fun fact: I never studied IT in school. Everything I know? Self-taught. YouTube + curiosity = the real MVPs ๐ค๐บ
After moving to NZ, life got a bit busy. I had a full-time job (not in tech, more like pizza deliveries ๐๐) and study life. So coding kind of took a pause. But I realized I missed it. Like, a lot. It's my kind of therapy: just me, the screen, and vibes ๐กโจ Started learning again, built some random tools (including some I totally regret, don't ask ๐
), and got back into the groove.
These days, I'm still deep-diving into all things tech, even though I work in a completely different industry. Why not full-time dev work? Tbh, the moment coding feels like work instead of fun, I lose all motivation ๐. I like building stuff on my own terms โ when it's fun, not forced.
Right now, I'm happily married (wife's literally sitting next to me as I type this ๐๐), love binge-watching movies ๐ฌ, exploring new places โ๏ธ, learning random things ๐ง , and yeah... FOOD. Huge foodie here ๐ and not to brag, but I'm kinda decent in the kitchen too ๐จโ๐ณ๐ฅ
Anyway, that's a lil' peek into my story. Thanks for stopping by!
Cheers ๐ฅ
