About Me

I'm a frontend developer based in Stockholm with a strong foundation in React, Next.js, React Native and the modern web ecosystem. What drives me is the hands-on side of development — breaking down designs into components, working through problems and building interfaces that actually feel good to use.

Currently, I'm completing my Frontend Development education at Chas Academy while gaining real-world experience through my internship at Enad. It's been a great environment to grow as a developer and work on real products alongside experienced teams.

Previously, I spent over seven years in retail, field marketing and project management — working with brands like Microsoft, HP, BOSE and Nespresso across the Nordics. Those roles taught me how to lead teams, manage client relationships and deliver results under pressure. It's a background that shapes how I approach development: with structure, ownership and a focus on the bigger picture.

Outside of work, you'll usually find me behind a camera exploring photography, spending time with my family, or in a heated Mario Kart session with friends.
