In today's episode, we sit down with Nic Yaros of Appian to talk about how low-code development can massively impact the business and IT world.

Nic grew up to be a handyman, just like his grandpa and dad, and he does a lot of woodwork and electrical plumbing.

But the nerd in him made him start his technical journey early by working for software companies back in high school and college.

After finishing his Computer Science degree, he spent some time at MIT's Lincoln Laboratory developing applications that assisted the FAA in safely navigating through severe weather conditions.

Currently, Nic works as an account executive at Appian, an industry-leading modern low-code platform and software company that helps automate business processes.

He uses his extensive technical background to educate people on how low-code can speed up enterprise applications without writing thousands of lines of code.

Today, Nic shares how to work smarter with low-code, integrating low-code into the construction industry, and its impact on today's businesses.
