My journey into web development began in technical college with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Something clicked right away — I loved shaping interfaces from scratch and watching them come alive. That spark turned into a habit: since 2018, I've been self-teaching, building side projects, and progressing from static sites to Vite, React, and eventually Next.js, all while studying IT at university and working in a completely different field.
In 2021 I took on my first freelance project for a travel agency. I wasn't fully confident yet, but I pushed through, delivered the site, and the client loved it. That experience gave me momentum. In late 2022 I shifted to full-time web work as a Web Developer for a turbocharger company, handling upgrades, maintenance, and monitoring. After graduating and realizing I wanted to grow beyond that role, I left in mid–2025 to freelance and deepen my Next.js skills. Now, after half a year of independent work, I'm ready to join a team in 2026 and build products alongside people who care about quality as much as I do.
