Hello! My name is Engin Arslan. I am a Front-End developer with a Bachelor of Science in Materials Engineering and a Postgraduate Degree in Visual Effects. Before becoming a Developer, I worked as a Visual Effects Artist / Technical Director on Films and TV shows including Resident Evil 4, Tron, Mama, Pompeii, Vikings, and Strain. I received an Emmy nomination and won a Canadian Screen Award for my achievements in Visual Effects. During my time in VFX, I fell in love with Python and with programming in general. As a result I changed careers to be able to immerse myself completely in software development. I currently work at Shopify, helping more people become entrepreneurs all over the world. I am also an author at Apress, Pluralsight and Linkedin Learning. I recently published a course and a book called Coding for Visual Learners. I currently reside in Berlin, Germany
