I am a GIS engineer turned programmer! I am pushing myself to learn new things each day and I am always interested in opportunities to grow as a developer.
I’ve been both a user and a developer of GIS tools. I do web development, mostly BackEnd focused but I do not shy away from diving into other realms. On the contrary, I strive to be great all-around developer and look forward to broadening my knowledge. I am curious, professional, responsible and communicative.
