EP6 Kent C Dodds - Javascript, teaching, and personal missions

"My fundamental goal is to make the world a better place.... But if I can do something that helps other people make the world a better place, then my capacity at accomplishing my goal is expanded tenfold."

While pursuing a career in electrical engineering, Kent realized that he could automate everyday tasks using code. Today, he works to make the world a better place through programming, and to enable others to do the same. He does this by contributing to open source and creating a wide variety of educational resources. Next up Kent is creating workshops, both in-person and remote. When you teach, you learn!
