I am looking for work in the coming months as a frontend engineer and/or interface designer -- my passion lies both in designing a beautiful user experience and implementing it in concise, elegant code. I minored in Computer Science in university, so I am well-versed in the fundamentals, while having almost five years of practical work experience in IT. I'm comfortable switching between front- and backend, and can debug the full technical stack.<p>I'm looking for a job that will challenge me to grow in my field, where I get to learn from my colleagues, and be part of a both a technical and creative process. Throughout my career, I've taken on increasingly technical roles, but have always found a way to enhance my work with my design skills.<p>Please get in touch if you're looking for a frontend developer with an eye for UI/UX, I would be eager to talk with you!
