Learn More About Me
Rotterdam/The Hague, The Netherlands
As I mentioned on the homepage, I am a software developer that focuses on building scalable and functional systems. To accomplish this goal, I've learned a variety of skills such as working with Content Management Systems (CMS), building reusable block pages, and creating elegant custom components. With my experience in different frameworks and technologies, I can build a wide range of applications, from simple websites to complex webapps. As you will discover on the projects page, I have made/worked on many different projects, some smaller scale and some very large. To name a few, Phantomshell is my first business experiment, which is a large SaaS cybersecurity platform, mimicking a real cybersecurity system. I also worked on YourCityGuide & Thinkfest at my first company, which are both large scale web applications that are used by thousands of people.

Communication Is Key
I have gained alot of experience over the years working with different teams and clients. Working with designers I've learned how to convert web designs into highly accurate web applications. Working in development teams, I've learned how to work with other developers and how to review their code with accuracy. I also got the chance to lead a few teams. I've also learned how to communicate with clients and understand their needs, presenting new features and explaining technical concepts to people that are not too familiar with technology.
