About me
Hi!
I've been a professional Software Developer 5+ years. I've so far worked majorly in web/frontend. I've also done mobile dev using web tech and freelance fullstack work.
I started programming at university in 2015 with Javascript and Php. Not too long after that I joined a group of my mates and did my first freelance project with Ruby on Rails. After that I worked on a few other freelance projects before landing my first job in 2020.

It was expanded to track changes on a certain Productboard roadmap when free website monitoring services weren't up to snuff.
