About Me

Today, I'm a self-taught builder.

But I once was an average developer.

What does this mean?

For me, this was the turning point of my carreer.

I'll explain.

I've studied programming for many years (I started when I was 15) and I was a great student who apparently would become a great developer. But even though my grades were good, I always felt something was off. I was trying hard to be a developer by making nonsensical software with deep abstractions, complex architechtures, and logic.

What I didn't realize at that time was that I just wasn't building something. Something that was truly useful.

A developer doesn't exist to be a logic nerd who creates beautiful code only. A developer should actually be a builder. A builder of software that solves real-life problems and helps people in the most diversified ways.

My framework/language/stack of choice doesn't matter that much. It's just a tool.

My code quality has to be good, though. But it will never be perfect. So what matters the most then?

I'm driven by the challenge of creating useful and enjoyable software.
