About me

At the age of 14, I got access to the internet and that triggered my curiosity to learn how it works which lead me to self-learn HTML, and CSS, and start developing websites. I love things small, fast, and light – and that’s paid off during my career.

Other than that, I love sports and I have a decade of experience in advanced calisthenics skills. I also enjoy reading, writing, and taking long walks with my girlfriend.
