Profile

I'm a self-taught developer focusing on making the payment world a better place. I'm experienced in frontend frameworks like React as well as backend frameworks like ktor and Spring Boot. Working both on frontends, backends as well as mobile apps I can truly say I am a developer that lives and breathes the full development lifecycle.

I am highly motivated in expanding my horizons day by day for better performance, user experience and cool new technologies.
