I'm usually the person who gives a group structure and keeps its energy up. I like knowing what everyone is working on, bringing people together and making sure an idea actually turns into something finished.
When a problem refuses to work, I stay with it for a long time. I try every angle I can before asking for help — sometimes until I'm close to giving up. What keeps me going is progress. Competition adds fuel, but seeing something improve is what matters most to me.
I take responsibility seriously. Nothing frustrates me faster than someone ignoring the task they agreed to do. I expect reliability from others because I want people to be able to expect the same from me. At the same time, I want to become more open to unfamiliar programming languages and approaches.
Outside coding, I spend most of my time with my family. This website is the project I'm proudest of because it feels the most like me. Under stress, I try to slow things down, relax or have a good conversation. I want to be known as someone who is eager to learn, dependable and a good person to ask for advice.
