Available to hire
I am an experienced and creative web developer. With a focus on designing applications using best practices and SOLID principles using Symfony, Slim or Laravel frameworks. Very experienced with MYSQL and with good JavaScript knowledge.
I have a “can do” attitude and I am very stubborn to get things done once started. Always keen to learn new things, and develop my skills, curios about the latest developments in technology, especially web related, but also about software and hardware architecture in general.
