About Me
The experience, working principles, and technical range behind the systems I build.

I'm a software engineer who enjoys the full development lifecycle, from understanding requirements and choosing an architecture to writing maintainable code, testing, deploying, and operating it.
Since 2020, I've worked across Belgian public-sector and enterprise teams: first on application development and modernization, then on Azure infrastructure and DevOps automation. My software engineering background shapes how I work with Terraform, GitHub Actions, and developer tooling. I care about clear design, code quality, and repeatable delivery.
I'm particularly interested in Developer Experience (DevEx) and how AI-assisted development can improve engineering workflows when it is evaluated for usefulness, security, and quality. I also enjoy mentoring developers and sharing what I learn through technical writing. Outside work, I like travelling and cooking.

Education
The foundation beneath the professional work.

Bachelor in Computer Science
I gained a comprehensive foundation in operating systems (Linux), databases, algorithms and data structures, web and Java development, C/C++, and microprocessors, complemented by interdisciplinary coursework in economics, statistics, mathematics, law, and philosophy, as well as UML-based software analysis. The program also emphasized communication skills in English for technical contexts. During an internship at Avanade in collaboration with the Microsoft Innovation Center, I developed custom extensions for Azure DevOps using Azure, .NET, and React, contributing to modernizing internal development workflows. This experience laid the foundation for my current work in cloud solutions and backend development.
