PumpedDevs
Hey! You've actually visited our page(?). We are pumpedDevs! We're thrilled to be part of the first Global Hackathon, well actually, this is the first hackathon for some of us. :)
About the team
Hi, we are pumpedDevs(pumped developers)! We're composed of 4 developers who loves to develop apps for mobile and the web.
The team was created months ago(May 2014) before Koding's Global Hackathon. The original members were me(Ron), Bryan, and a friend of mine(Not in the team). We formed this team because of some reasons and our main goal is to start our own. We wanted to build our own start up. Our problem is, we don't have any idea how, also our time and budget won't allow us. (We have full-time and part time jobs. Long story on why we can't quit any, but we can share if requested?)
The time we discovered the hackathon, we were so excited. But when we saw that there were only 1000 slots for the hackathon, the excitement went down since we think that it is "impossible" for us(me) to be chosen. But I still tried! I told them, "If we get chosen, I will treat you guys!". So eventually, I treated them at a coffee shop(starbucks)!
I asked the other two members to join us in this hackathon, Kenneth who was my classmate in college and Joell who was our teacher in college. They both develop for the web and they're really great in it so I thought they'd be a perfect fit for the team and invited them. I also had an experience developing with them so it's a plus for us.
The team's goal for this competition is to have fun in the hackathon, show what we can do and what we can contribute. We think that this event is a big help for us to reach our goal which is to create our own start up company and use our skills to help others. Winning in this competition might be hard and intimidating, but what isn't? We'll give it a try and do our best!
