About
Ten years in sales, and always drawn to the technical side.
I've worked in B2B sales for more than ten years, starting as a sales consultant and working my way up to Sales Manager. Along the way I've led teams, taken new products from idea to launch, and learned how to get people from different departments and technical backgrounds working well together.
I've always been drawn to the technical side. I have a bachelor's degree in Computer Game Design. Now I'm learning web development by building real tools, with a focus on APIs and databases.

How I build
- 01
Built with AI, understood by me
I build with Claude Code, and I make a point of understanding what goes in: what each part does and why it is there.
- 02
Secrets stay out of the code
Passwords, keys and tokens live in environment variables, never in the repository.
- 03
Git from the first line
Everything is versioned from the start, so any change can be rolled back.
