ABOUT ME
Never stop exploring.
Never stop exploring.

My expertise includes a deep knowledge of HMTL, CSS, JavaScript including NodeJS, Front End Operations, and the current cutting edge “Front End Stack”. Nonetheless, I deliver well-thought-out and innovative solutions regardless of framework or technology.

I have a keen eye for design and love hand-crafted CSS, fully tested JavaScript, automatization, mentoring and I stay ahead of the curve. I enjoy challenging the current state by asking the right questions and providing creative solutions.

With more than 15 years of experience in the “Front End Industry”, I have a proven track record of defining, architecting, and implementing customer experiences and Front End frameworks, as well as training fellow developers. I have created cutting-edge microsites, worked as a technical consultant, and led teams on large-scale creative and technology-focused projects in the Fortune 500 corporate environment.

I have worked with great talents in different time zones, cultures, and expertise. This has taught me lessons about empathy, understanding motivations, and finding common goals. I deeply believe that the best work is done by agile teams, working in an optimistic, respectful, and transparent mindset. I am an experienced remote worker and convinced that a truly remote culture is superior to every open-plan office.

I am interested in remote and agile projects with a state-of-the-art technology stack. I am looking for opportunities in challenging Front-End projects which benefit from my creative thinking, deep knowledge, and interest in Front End technology and Front End operations as well as leading and mentoring teams of talented developers.

I love to explore and experiment while pushing boundaries every day.
