about me.
... the guy who traded lederhosen for fjord views, making the grand move from Germany to Norway in 2008. By day, I'm the guy fixing leaks and keeping things flowing smoothly. But when the sun sets, the real adventure begins.
I've got a knack for crafting visual wonders using Autodesk Sketchbook, Adobe Illustrator, Affinity Photo, and Affinity Designer. My trusty graphic tablet is like an extension of my creative soul.
After a day of plumbing adventures, my evenings and weekends are dedicated to another kind of craftsmanship – web development. Since the end of 2018, I've been on a self-learning journey, unraveling the mysteries of HTML5, (S)CSS, and JavaScript with the help of YouTube tutorials and Udemy courses. I've also been working on a few small projects, including a dentist's website and a website for a local artist.
Venturing into the unknown, I've tangoed with frameworks like Vue, Astro, and Svelte. And in the quiet hours, I've embraced the mysteries of TypeScript, Accessibility, and WAI-ARIA – all while balancing wrenches and lines of code.
Injecting an intriguing turn to the tale, I've set sail on a career switch from plumbing to the confines of an office. This journey prompted me to enlist in a web development bootcamp at SGD , driven by the ambition to master the intricate skills of a seasoned web developer and UX designer.
And, here's a nugget of interest – I proudly bear a certificate as a web developer and UX designer.
