Thanks for visiting my site! I'm Tyler Johnson, but you can call me TJ.
Growing up, I was always the kid who found technology and building things fun. Between Legos, K'nex, video games, and computers I was always busy. Almost as far back as I can remember however, I always wanted to be a programmer, and specifically a Game Developer.
Starting off with a classic Game Boy and a Super Nintendo when I was about 3, gaming has always been a passion. The games that stuck out the most through the years are Pokémon Gold, The Legend of Zelda a Link to the Past, Super Mario Sunshine, Ratchet and Clank, and Ace Combat to name a few.
Jump forward 20+ years and I'm still playing games. The only thing that has changed is I've finally learned how to program my own games, and the systems that go along with them.
Learning how to program didn't happen overnight... I spent several years at two universities learning how to program in languages like C++, C#, Python, Java, and SQL. After a couple degrees and some "real life" experience, I've finally earned the title of a really good debugger. Some of my most recent experience has been working with C++ talking to lasers, cameras, and various other hardware on Linux machines.
As time goes on, I hope to use this site as a place to keep track of all my projects, and anything related to technology or other projects in my life. If you have any questions that you want to send my way, feel free to contact me!
