About

Hi there! 👋

I'm a freelance web developer and contractor based in Zürich, Switzerland.

I build performant, user-centric web applications. I develop both visually appealing apps and kick-ass architecture layers. Clients often hire me to create prototypes, products, or entire ecosystems from scratch.

My frontend skills include Svelte, Angular, React and StencilJS, though I'm particularly passionate about framework-agnostic solutions using TypeScript.

I prefer decentralized solutions over big tech cloud providers, which fuels my interest in blockchain networks — especially the Internet Computer, on which I built Juno.

While I don't handle backend work for clients, I have developed smart contracts in Rust for my personal projects.

I hold degrees in Computer Engineering and an Executive Master’s in Business Administration (EMBA), and I’m fluent in French, German, and English.

When I'm not coding, you can find me running on mountain trails. 🏔️🏃

If you have a project in mind or need some help, get in touch!

Over the past few years, I’ve had the opportunity to speak at and run workshops at several conferences:

Blog

New skills I have learned and technologies I have used are part of my blog series, where I share the results of my recent work. That said, I’ve been blogging less lately as my focus is on building Juno.

A New Chapter Awakens

I’ll be working full-time on Juno through 2025 thanks to support from the DFINITY foundation.
