I've been a Magento Developer for about 5 years and each day that passes I believe more that I made the right choice, probably the best choice of my life. I proudly hold the three Magento certifications (in order of relevance): Magento Front-end Developer, Magento Certified Developer and Magento Certified Developer Plus. If anybody tells me that something cannot be implemented in Magento I try to proof him the otherwise. For me, being a Magento Developer is not only a profession, it's more than that, it's a passion, a lifestyle.
