About

Building on curiosity, consistency, and a love for the web.

I moved from Germany to England, adapted to a new education system, and kept building software the whole way through.

Background

From Germany to England

Before moving to England, I attended school in Germany for nine years. Midway through Year 9, I decided to continue my education abroad and repeat the year so I could properly improve my English.

After arriving in England in 2022, I quickly settled into the new environment and realised how much I enjoyed the experience. That decision shaped both my studies and the way I approach growth: be uncomfortable, learn fast, and keep moving.

Programming

Started with the basics, stayed for the craft.

I began programming through HTML and CSS at school, but it did not take long before JavaScript pulled me in. The idea of making websites interactive turned into a much deeper interest in how the web works end to end.

Discovering Svelte and later SvelteKit gave me the framework I wanted: fast, component-driven, and enjoyable to build with. Since then I have focused on writing clean, maintainable applications with a strong emphasis on UX and developer experience.
