I'm a full-stack developer with a strong focus on frontend technologies. I've been working on web applications since 2000. Currently, my favorite tools are Svelte & SvelteKit for web development, along with SwiftUI. I also have extensive experience in React, Angular, and Vue, as well as Flutter. On the backend, I’ve worked with orchestration tools like Kubernetes, built serverless and edge functions, and have spent a significant amount of time with PostgreSQL, managing everything from stored procedures with PL/pgSQL to roles, permissions, and triggers. I've also worked with NoSQL databases such as MongoDB, Redis, and Google Datastore.

Music

Outside of programming, I'm a passionate musician. I’ve studied Jazz Drums for over a decade, alongside classical percussion and Jazz piano. I also play guitar and sing. I regularly release music under my artist name Meno, and you can explore my work at www.yesmeno.com.

Design & 3D

My love for frontend development is closely tied to my passion for design and crafting engaging visual experiences. Lately, I primarily use Figma for UI design. Additionally, I work with Blender for 3D modeling and rendering. Feel free to check out some of my (sporadically updated) work on Instagram, or view one of my music videos, "We Follow".

Projects

Currently, I devote most of my time to my startup, Pausly, an app designed to help people stay healthy by encouraging regular movement and micro-breaks during work.

Other interests

Aside from that, I enjoy sports (primarily CrossFit at the moment) as well as watching and playing chess (though I’m not particularly good at it), and photography.
