This week on My Angular Story, Charles speaks with Mike Ryan. Mike is a software engineer at Synapse in Alabama and works as a tech lead there. He first got into programming when his family stayed with an uncle during a hurricane as a child and was sent home with parts to build his first computer. This really kicked off his interest in programming and problem solving. He then created websites to help pay for some of his living costs when in college, and this is what led him to discovering Angular JS.

In particular, We dive pretty deep on:
