Alan Robbins - Self-taught Programmer Success Story

Alan Robbins is a self-taught programmer who dabbled with programming in college.  After not doing to well in the post-secondary system with respect to programming, he changed his major and graduated with a degree in Business Economics and a minor in Psychology and Philosophy. After graduating, he decided that he had a knack for programming (even if the "system" told him otherwise) so he ended up getting an entry level job as a programmer.  Since then, he's started up a couple of businesses and is now running a very successful software development company with 40 employees and "lives the dream" by working from home.
