My name is Erik Hanchett and I'm a web and Java developer from Reno, Nevada. Currently I work as developer advocate for AWS Amplify. Quick plug, make sure to check out ui.docs.amplify.aws/.

I've been a programmer for many years now and I've always been wanting to give back to the community. I started this channel, and my website (www.programwitherik.com) as a way to teach people what I know.

I started learning web development seriously in early 2015, before that I strictly programmed in Java. I worked many nights and weekends getting up to speed and I blogged about my journey. I decided to focus on Ember.js and after about a year I wrote my first book on it! (goo.gl/LEIdSc )! Now a days I work in Vue.js/React/Node and more!

Stick around this channel, I do tutorials, advice and occasionaly I vlog! If you got this far please tweet me the words "I read it" at twitter.com/ERIKCH - That would make my day!
