Helping companies achieve their digital goals

I am a full stack web engineer as my BSc degree allows me to say. I love to create visually amazing and fast responsive websites that are built on the latest techniques. I have a deep understanding of JavaScript, allowing me to hop on to libraries and frameworks with ease, such as Vue, React, Typescript, Next and Nuxt.

I am a fast and agile developer that is known for working well in multidisciplinary teams. I love to get hands-on during projects and aim to achieve milestones effectively and efficiently. I bring a positive energy and a can-do attitude to your team. I have helped clients achieve technical success and can offer my services during all phases of your project.
