🤓 Interests
🤖 Home Automation
I spend my spare time on home automation projects around the house. Home Assistant is my weapon of choice and if it did not require the use of a soldering iron, it was almost too easy!
🖨️ 3D Printing
3D printing and modeling have been part of my toolbox for many years! I find it extremely satisfying to solve real-life problems using this tool.
👨💻 Web development
To me, web development is as much a hobby as it is my job. When I am done working for the day, I often spend the evening building personal web projects. These projects enable me to explore new technologies that I might not get to use during my day job.
