THE PERSON BEHIND THE CODE

Curious about
making things better .

I'm Thijs, a software developer and student at mboRijnland. I build independent software projects under the name Stekelcode.

I'm interested in where systems meet: financial data, APIs and processes that could work better. I enjoy turning that complexity into something simple to use.
