Who am I?

I'm a developer, and I build products.

Since pre-2000, I've been turning lines of code into rewarding creations, awkward bugs, and unexpected dance parties when the code finally works!

Highlights

Running my own company since 2013
Founded three startups
Quick transition from idea to execution — I call it Extreme Pragmatism (Better to have a database in a JSON file than fancy slides)
Certified in Java, ElasticSearch, and MongoDB, but also Finance
Beginner in Machine Learning (classification, Learning-to-Rank, Deep learning...)

Fun Facts

In 1999, my first website was fully designed with HTML tables (didn't know about divs!)
I enjoy running and riding bicycles in all weather, from -15°C to 40°C
As a minimalist, I've been running in zero drop shoes since 2008 (proud owner of Xero shoes)
