About the Author

Steven Goodwin has been hooked on all things tech since he could barely reach a keyboard. He wrote his first lines of code at just eight years old and crafted his very first synthesizer while still a teenager. Since then, he’s worn many hats―developer, CTO, system architect―and worked with companies of all shapes and sizes, always pushing the boundaries of innovation. A true thought leader in the industry, he’s also a speaker and a mentor, helping others navigate the ever-evolving tech landscape. When he’s not geeking out over the latest tech trends, you’ll find him . . . well, still geeking out over tech. It’s kind of his thing.
