About me

I am a software engineer and product designer focused on building reliable, user-centered applications across mobile and web platforms. My background combines hands-on programming experience with a strong foundation in interactive media and digital product design. Currently studying Graphic & Digital Media (Interactive Media Development) at Artevelde University of Applied Sciences, where I further deepen my expertise in software engineering, UX, and digital product development. Alongside my studies, I develop real-world applications and platforms, including contributions to the Green Guide Gent. Working across the full development stack—from concept and user experience to architecture and implementation—has become a central part of my approach. Recent projects include native mobile applications, platform development, and scalable digital solutions with a strong focus on performance, maintainability, and usability. I am particularly motivated by projects where technology, design, and real-world impact intersect, and I continuously expand my skillset through hands-on development and experimentation with new tools and technologies.
