Professional developer since 2001. AWS Community Builder since 2021.

Build great tooling. bash hero, makefile ninja.

python is the scripting language of my choice – I avoid using scripting languages.

go is my preferred language.

Can lead, want to code.

I do the full stack:

• Application / Service / Microservice design
• Front- and backend development
