About me

Craft
above
all

I'm a freelance frontend developer & UI/UX designer from Hilversum. I studied Open-ICT at HU University for 4 years, graduating in July 2024. Since then I've been working as solo frontend developer at YoungPWR while building projects for my own clients.

With a background in both design and development, I love working at the intersection of the two. I believe good code and good design are inseparable. I use AI tooling like Claude Code as part of my workflow — not as a replacement for craft, but as an accelerator of it.

Available for freelance projects and full-time positions — 4 days a week. Potentially full-time available soon.

Took over the codebase solo from a departing lead developer. From broken auth and pages router to a modern, running platform — without downtime.
