My past
I've been interested in tech all my life, and started my programming journey when I was 12. I love making websites and learning more programming languages in my free time. I've studied many programming languages at school, inluding HTML, CSS, Javascript, C#, and Python.
Spare time
Outside of of school and technology, I enjoy playing the piano, playing the kalimba, and exposing myself to art and new ideas to stay open-minded and creative. And even though I love coding, I also enjoy learning non-programming languages; I'm fluent in English, Dutch, Portuguese, and I'm learning French, German, and Korean.
Experience
I often enrich my knowledge in my free time to challenge and improve myself with new things and refresh what I already know, so I've racked up some experience in the last few years. Here are some that i've highlighted!
If you want to see all of my projects instead of just the highlights, click here.
EF Seoul
Education First is a language exchange program which takes people from all over the world to countries that speak the language they are learning. In 2025, I took part in this program and lived in Seoul, South Korea to study Korean.
Coding Core
Coding Core is a website that includes programming resources such as images, pixels, gifs, HTML help (stackoverflow, HTML validator, etc), a note system, and more. I made and designed it for myself, but I do have plans to generalize it and release it.
Meervaart Jong Festival
After eight years of taking dance classes at Meervaart Jong, this was my last performance. 800 people enjoyed my team and I's performance to JUMP!, and we all enjoyed being on stage.
Now (?)
Academically, I'm still in highschool, year 5 of VWO level. I've started looking into plans for after graduation, and I'm working hard to become an impressive applicant.
Personally, I'm learning to accept and express myself. Rediscovering my love for the arts and classic media. Committing to exercising daily, and generally taking better care of my body. Overall in my "era" of personal growth. :)
My future
I've always struggled to think about what I want for my future, because I love two opposites; arts and computers. I hope that I can find a way to combine the two in the future.
And so, I aim to dive deeper into game development; the perfect combination of the two. Webdevelopment is a close second, so I'll be maintaining my skills there as well.
