Hello there,

I got into web development in the 90s when the www got started. I was absolutely fascinated with the web and made my first website with the help of some books from my local library.

My favorite field in web development is specifically the frontend. As frontend competence lead, my job is to follow the industry and evaluate new browser API:s and inform my colleagues of them.

Although I’m experienced in most frontend frameworks, my go to is React.

I enjoy talking about frontend development, as well as teaching and mentoring.
