Crafts UXs and UIs for digital tools by startups and bigger companies. Currently building a better way to give employees and employers a central hub for making their work life kickass.
Oh, how time flies. Really interesting to read about everyone's progress through life. I'm probably forgetting some parts, but here's mine:
Swept floors at my folk's office.
(Started to really get into video games, the web, and computers, as I couldn't be outside much due to allergies).
Moved to a new city, swept floors and helped out at my folk's new shop/office.
(Did lots of banner graphics on Final Fantasy related forums)
Swept floors at a supermarket.
(Started getting into making those banners with HTML/CSS instead. Got hooked on frontend, thanks to Coyier and CSS-Tricks)
Started making basic websites for locals
(Horrible ones, but got my first frontend paycheck, which was a blast)
Waited tables at a Dutch pancake house (in Denmark, what?).
(Began designing and developing websites for more small businesses and lots of business cards, brochures etc., my folks included.)
Got into Wordpress development for clients with a friend for a year.
Assistant at a print shop for a year before university.
(Cut and rounded corners, by hand, of countless business cards for LEGO executives)
Started to really get into freelance frontend development during uni. Lots of Shopify shops and Wordpress sites.
(Started studying Digital Design, which was a sham, started studying Information Science instead)
Started a SaaS startup as a technical co-founder with 2 buddies, which failed
(Idea management tools for schools and local governments weren't as hot as we thought).
Pivoted and started a new SaaS startup helping startups, students and businesses with pitching.
(With the same buddies, still going strong).
Helped out a bunch of larger companies with getting up to date with new technologies.
(Dinosaurs seemingly like paying young nerds who can combine frontend, digital design with startup experience. Who knew?)
Freelance frontend/UX/UI developer/consultant/something who builds new digital tools and products for large companies. Currently developing tools for improving workplace happiness.
(Still sweeping floors, but only in my home office 😉).
