At the age of ten, I programmed my first guess-six-letters program in assembler on a Philips Videopac G7000 a.k.a Magnavox Odyssey². From that time, my passion for computers grew.
Since 1998, I have worked professionally building company Web sites and corporate images. From the early beginning, I focused on user interaction and experience and was hired to build user interfaces for Intranets, which were used by large worldwide corporations. During this time, I expanded my programming skills and have kept these alive and evolving through many great projects over time.
I have learned to realize that this is a unique combination to have the feel for graphics and their uses while also knowing programming in various languages. A goal is to keep up understanding the technology evolution that regards interactive communication and by this way leading research and development for business purposes.
