Setting up Dev environment

Downloaded a bunch of tools and added a dozen cool Packages to our Sublime text editor

Keyboard shortcuts

In my former life as a banker toying around in Excel, keyboard shortcuts were a godsend. This will definitely be a part of my new life.

After Hours

TechInMotion to hear co-founder Shaan Shah (above) speak on the topic of “Thinking Big: The Evolution of Tech Ed”. Spoke to some neat people including CEOs of HackerRank and CodeCombat (both Y Combinator alum).
