User manual

Who.
I am a Dutch software engineer, specialised in the web platform as a whole. I enjoy writing about all the exciting new stuff I encounter about the web development and security for the web. Like many, I drink a lot of coffee to get throughout the day. Those two small kids of mine certainly won't help cut down on the caffeine intake. But whenever I have time and energy, and I am not working on interrupted (previously crinkles) or feo.css, I do love to play some videogames. It is no secret that Pokemon is my favorite franchise.
What.
I specialize in development around the web platform. In particular CSS, and (web-)security. I am always open for open conversations around mentoring, consulting, or reviewing on these topics.
Technologies.
  • Web: HTML, CSS & JavaScript
  • Package development: JavaScript & TypeScript
  • UI frameworks: Svelte(Kit), React, Eleventy
  • Architecture: iSAQB, C4, MermaidJS, PlantUML
  • Security: Python, bash
Where.
I live in the Netherlands with my family.
Work.
I work for Finaps a (small-ish) software agency based in Amsterdam, the Nethelands. Here I lead a department of ~15 software engineers, and lead our technical innovation initiatives.
Pokemon.
I am a big pokemon fan and not afraid to show it. These are currently my favorite pokemons. Feel free to make assumptions about me based on them.
  • Flareon: I think this is my favorite at the moment. The Eeveelutions are popular in my family. And as a genwunner that always used Squirtle, I needed a fire-type and this was always the one. Fluffy but undervalued.
  • Rowlet: I love owls in general, and that little bow tie just sells the entire vibe.
  • Squirtle: the very first pokemon I chose in Pokemon Blue. As a child I could not get enough of this one.
  • Flapple: who doesn't like a small frantically flying apple? Especially the green shiny looks spectacular.
