Born in the Netherlands
Born in a small town in the southern Netherlands. My generation was the first to grow up alongside the rise of personal computers, mobile phones, and the internet.

Drawn to the digital world
As a teenager, I found myself drawn to the digital world. By the time I hit my late teens, I had already started using my computer skills to earn money online, mainly through graphic design work.

2008–2016

Over time, I became curious about how the websites I was designing actually worked. That led me to HTML, CSS, and JS, and gradually to more complex programming languages and frameworks such as Laravel and Next.js.

Full-stack Web Engineer
With nearly two decades of experience, I engineer complex web applications end to end, from the database and backend to the interface. I call myself a Web Engineer: full-stack development, with a designer's eye for detail.
