Software Developer · Mitrovicë, Kosovo
I turn the work people still do by hand into software they use every day.
Third-year Computer Science & Engineering student at UMIB.
By day I build internal systems @ Petrol Company. By night I build websites for small businesses.

How I work
Most of what I build replaces something a person is already doing by hand.
So I spend time with whoever owns that problem before I write anything: the requirements that matter are rarely the ones in the brief. Then I build the thing they can run without me, and I write the handover as carefully as the code.
TypeScript most days, Python when there is data.
