I am a mobile and web developer, living in Hamilton, New Zealand.
My passion for code and technology started at the age of 13. Back then I built small, fun website projects with my friends from school, using PHP (and of course HTML and JavaScript). At this stage I already knew I wanted to be a developer and never really stopped coding stuff. Over the past 10 years, I have built websites on a professional level and I started getting into mobile development about three years ago. I first started with native iOS development in Swift but at the beginning of 2019, Flutter grabbed my attention and I completely fell for it back then.
I love how I could adapt so many things that I know from JavaScript into Dart and how user interfaces are built in Flutter. I can connect apps to APIs, have experience with the Firebase SDK and worked with location services, notifications, animations, state management (provider and bloc), in-app-purchases and lots of other things in Flutter.
All my skills are self-taught. I’m highly self-motivated to learn new and complicated concepts. I love technology and trying new things out, and I regularly delve into the latest trends and tools to see how I can benefit from them. Being self-employed has also taught me how to organise myself and my work as effectively as possible.
I’ve been a musician for most of my life and worked professionally as a freelance photographer since 2014. Creativity is basically hard-coded into my DNA and I love creating and building new and amazing things.
