Virtuosoforce innovations member Anand Singh hails from Chaguanas, and says he had no plan to be a software developer—he just fell into it. His teammate convinced him to enter the challenge and he did it to benefit other citizens. Interestingly, Anand didn’t own a personal computer or other tech devices outside of a mobile phone for the last 12 years.

The second team member of Virtuosoforce innovations is Kerisha Stewart, originally from Couva and now living in Chaguanas. Kerisha embraced the D’HUB Challenge as a good opportunity to showcase the ability and potential of local developers. Kerisha says that coding is her way to bring ideas to life. She follows her curiosity, because intrigue feeds her creativity. Kerisha advises up and coming developers to not be afraid of failure. It will happen along the way, but you can learn from it and use it as a stepping block to move on to the next stage in your journey.
