A Glimpse Into My Story

I am an Engineering Lead with a passion for building products and leading teams. I have over 10 years of experience in software development, starting with frontend specialization and now managing cross-functional teams across frontend, backend, QA, and DevOps. I balance 50% management with 50% hands-on engineering work, ensuring I stay technical while growing as a leader. I have a strong track record of delivering scalable applications and building high-performing teams.

I am currently based in the Netherlands, working at Okra.ai since 2023. I find inspiration in the country's rich history of innovation and creativity. I am always eager to explore new frameworks, tools, and best practices to stay at the forefront of the ever-evolving tech landscape. I thrive on challenges that push the boundaries of what's possible, and I advocate for user-centric design, clean code, and building engineering culture. I spend time learning and building stuff for the web, with over 11M downloads on NPM across projects.

When I'm not immersed in code, you can find me cycling along the picturesque Dutch landscapes or savoring a cup of coffee at one of the cozy cafes in town. I am always looking for new opportunities to collaborate with talented individuals and create exceptional digital experiences. Let's connect and discuss how we can work together!

I believe that minimalistic designs with subtle transitions can deliver better user experiences.
