About

I've been passionate about computers since I was a kid, and started writing code at fifteen. I studied Graphic & Digital Media at Artevelde University of Applied Sciences in Ghent, where I got a solid grounding in both design and full stack development.

I began my career as a front-end developer at a creative agency, where I've worked on numerous projects (KAA Gent, Colruyt Group, ..) and gained valuable experience and collaboration skills along the way. Eventually I missed being part of the full creative process, so I made the move to full stack development at the same company.

Today I'm a full stack developer who's still eager to learn new things and keep improving.
