Iām a software developer from Tampere, a nice little town in Finland.
I've been creating things on the web for fun and food for the last 20 years, yet in many ways I feel I'm only getting started. I tend to get inspired by people, especially when they're kind and creative. Always up for new friends and ideas!
You can find me on Twitter, GitHub, LinkedIn and Goodreads.
