Every idea deserves to be heard.
I listen to ideas, explore what people need, and design and build digital experiences around those needs.
Creative Full-Stack Developer & Digital Solutions Consultant
Approach
Every need has its own story.
Every business, every person and every need has a story of its own. I shape technology around that story. I listen first, then clarify the need together with you, and build a solution that fits the people who will use it.
Listen
I don’t start writing code before I’ve seen the idea, the people who will use it and the real data.
Clarify the need
I split the work into phases and prioritise; what’s critical always comes first.
Design and build the solution
I verify hard-to-reverse steps in a safe environment first. AI assistants help me move faster, but AI doesn’t get the last word: I cross-check with more than one AI agent to add an extra layer of care. Decisions and final verification always stay with me.
Review together
I set up two environments for every project. Changes go live on a preview environment first, which you can open on the web right away. Once you approve, I release to production, and error monitoring stays on after launch.

About
Where engineering discipline meets creative thinking.
I’m an electrical and electronics engineer with a master’s degree in computer engineering, and a specialist in management information systems. I work professionally as a full-stack developer, building web, mobile and custom business software with React, React Native and Node.js. My engineering and information systems background lets me look at a project from the user’s needs, the technical systems and the business processes all at once.

One more thing…
Need a gift idea? Write to me.
I love creating small touches that make people feel valued. So whenever someone wants to make something special for a person they care about, I’m happy to help with ideas.
I don’t mean a pen or a notebook with a name printed on it. Sometimes it’s a small digital piece made just for that person, sometimes an experience to share, sometimes a surprise that turns into a game when it’s opened. Tell me who it’s for and why they matter to you, and we’ll figure out the rest together.
- A personal digital piece
- An experience to share
- An interactive surprise
There’s no fee for this. I’m a collector of happy moments, and I’d love for you and the people you care about to add one to my collection.
