Ready to join your team
as a Front-End developer
- Worked for
A self-taught front-end developer, with an economics degree and graphic design background
While earning my masters degree in economics (Mecon), I developed a fascination with the "new" digital artists of the era, the early 2000s. Artists like Michael Young and Mike Cina (weworkforthem) and others which lead to an interest in modernist typography, grid systems (Brockman, Muller, Tschischold), data-visualisation and motion design.
First worked in both print and web layouts, doing 3D illustrations and infographics, then more and more web related work, UI design and coding.
In the early 2010s realising the need to specialise in one field. I choose the one which matched best my skillset, and where I could create the most value. This is being the front-end developer in a team of talented people.
Then in the last 5 years striving for the impossible and become the ideal front-end developer: going both deeper (more engineering and management fundamentals) and wider (more APIs and tools).
Values I'm striving for
- Being a team player
- Learning from others, sharing knowledge
- Adapting to existing work methods, tools
- Communication
- Improving the questions I ask, listening to others
- Detailed, continous progress reporting for coworkers and management
- Compound learning
- Learning from the best at Frontendmasters, Egghead
- Learning from being wrong: estimates and results, previous mistakes
- From what others already figured out
