I'm a software developer from Sweden with a bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Kristianstad University.
Most of my practical experience comes from university projects and personal projects. I have worked with web applications, REST APIs, databases and Android development. I particularly enjoy debugging and figuring out why something is not working as expected. In larger projects, I have also often ended up taking responsibility for coordination and structure when it was needed.
A Software Engineering course project involving a server, web and mobile applications, simulated devices and physical hardware.
I was the project manager for a team of around 16 students. My work included setting up the GitHub workflow with issues, branches, pull requests and review requirements. I also coordinated requirements, risks, test plans and integration work between the different subgroups. Alongside the project management work, I contributed directly to development, mainly with server and integration-related code.
A full-stack e-commerce application developed as a university group project using React, Node.js, Express and MongoDB.
My contributions included the initial frontend and backend project structure, the homepage, navigation, profile page, cart, checkout and order confirmation. I also worked with the Figma design and deployment of the application.
My personal website contains both my developer portfolio and a separate photography portfolio.
The current version uses Next.js, TypeScript and Tailwind CSS and is deployed with Vercel.

For my bachelor's thesis, I investigated performance trade-offs between two API rate-limiting strategies: Queue-on-Limit and Drop-on-Limit.
Photography and videography have been long-running interests of mine. I also enjoy spending time outdoors and working on smaller technical projects when I find an interesting problem to explore.
