Full-Stack Developer & Technical Coach

About

I am a creative and entrepreneurial developer with a broad background in frontend and full-stack development. I thrive on building digital solutions and on mentoring and supporting colleagues, helping teams grow stronger and more self-reliant.

Currently, I work as a Lead Frontend Developer and Technical Coach at Randstad Group Netherlands. I am training a colleague to take over my responsibilities while also fulfilling a broad role: working with modern frontend technologies, contributing to backend development, and setting up CI/CD pipelines with GitLab and AWS. My work is versatile, ranging from coding to coaching and from providing advice to hands-on execution.

In recent years, I have worked with several leading companies while also pursuing my entrepreneurial drive by developing personal projects. From launching platforms and organizing meetups to collaborating within collectives such as Red Nomads, my career has consistently combined professional assignments with personal initiatives. Along the way, I have frequently mentored and trained colleagues, for example at Guts & Gusto, where I not only developed their new website but also helped the team further professionalize its knowledge and processes. These experiences have taught me to take responsibility, recognize opportunities, and successfully deliver complex projects.

In my free time, I produce digital music in FL Studio, enjoy nature walks with my wife, love experimenting with new recipes, and volunteer at a local thrift store.
