I’m a Software Engineer based in Belgium specialized in Java back-end software with experience in technical architecture and leadership. I also really like teaching, coaching, and presenting technical topics. I believe that when you share knowledge, you also improve and refine your own understanding of it over time: it’s a win-win solution in which both parties grow.
I highly value continuous self-improvement, self-discipline, and ownership. I’m confident, bold, and at ease even on unstable ground. I also truly enjoy the company of calmer and more cautious team members, since I strongly believe that there must always be balance in a highly effective team.
I highly value understanding the fundamentals instead of really specific knowledge, as I think it leads to a broader and richer problem-solving toolkit. I like Open Source Software since I strongly believe that open contributions are a major driver of continuous improvement of those, and it also helps me understand better the software I use.
