About me

I'm Julian, a 24-year-old software developer from Drenthe, the Netherlands.

I'm currently working at Zonneplan.

In 2013, I discovered my passion for programming, which was sparked by watching Daniel Shiffman completing challenges set by his audience. I began my formal programming education in 2017, following the fundamentals I had learned in Processing.

From October 2018 to March 2019, I had the privilege of participating in an international internship in the United Kingdom. During this time, I specialized in Node.js for back-end development. One of the most valuable skills I acquired was the use of Async.js, which led to my proficiency in callbacks, as an alternative to the conventional async/await approach.

As a hobby, I enjoy playing the drums, which I started fairly recently. My expertise with the drums has been primarily self-taught, and I make it a point to practice daily, constantly seeking to master new songs.

Video games have been a significant part of my life for as long as I can recall. My all-time favorite game is The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, followed closely by Clone Hero and Breath of the Wild.

My skill set includes:

  • React.js
  • Kotlin
  • Flutter/Dart
  • Google Cloud
