I am Lars Nelson, a former elite cross-country skier who proudly won Olympic relay gold in Sochi 2014. During my years of training I cultivated a strong interest in computers, which grew into a passion for programming that I pursued between sessions. After retiring from elite sport, I studied software engineering and now work as a developer. I value writing clean, well-documented code, mentoring teammates, and designing products that are intuitive for both developers and users. My goal is to create tools that truly simplify life for others and foster direct dialogue with users during design and reviews.…I am Lars Nelson, a former elite cross-country skier who proudly won Olympic relay gold in Sochi 2014.
