About

From technical problem-solving to full-stack software.

I started in a practical technical environment before moving into software development. That background shaped how I approach systems: I like understanding how things work, where they break, and how to make them better.

Today, I build full-stack web applications, integrations, and business workflows through SandBox Logic. I work directly with clients from requirements and planning through development, deployment, support, and improvement.

My focus now is growing deeper in React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, testing, and CI/CD as I prepare for international full-stack opportunities, especially in Finland.

I enjoy building software that is not only technically sound, but genuinely useful to the people relying on it.

Skills

A practical mix of full-stack development, integrations, cloud delivery, and client-facing problem-solving.

01 / Build the Interface

I build clean, responsive web interfaces and form-driven user journeys using React, Next.js, JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML, and CSS/SCSS.

02 / Connect the System

I build server-side workflows and API integrations that move data between websites, CRMs, cloud tools, and business platforms.

03 / Automate the Workflow

I design business workflows that reduce manual effort, improve follow-up, and connect front-end actions with back-end processes.

04 / Deliver with the Client

I work directly with clients and stakeholders to understand requirements, plan practical solutions, support users, and improve systems over time.
