The road so far
My story
I always loved stories and research. I’m inquisitive by nature and I can have an interest in almost anything. This is why I studied Journalism and pictured a future of being a traditional newspaper editor somewhere in a small suburb. But it kind of felt meh. I yearned to learn more, yearned to learn something different.
That’s where the internet comes in. I still remember my father coming home with a computer. A big, bulky, noisy thing that worked with very large floppies and MS-DOS as the operating system. The endless times I typed C:\>. The spark I was missing ignited the instant I clicked play on my first Macromedia Flash tutorial video.
Since then I have spent hours figuring out how the web was made and how I could make things on the web. It was only natural that I landed various jobs in web development. I loved it.
Fast forward to today, those passion comes together, a combination of research, storytelling, programming, journalism and internet. It incorporates creativity and problem-solving and I'm allowed to dive into unknown territories.
I love a bunch of weird curiosities with no idea what to make of it. It's oddly satisfying to construct a good story out of it.
