Summary

Built in 1981, I've been a developer for the past 15+ years. I started out as a webdeveloper at a large Dutch bank but got into native (iOS) development as soon as the first iPhone 3G landed in The Netherlands.
After that I started gaining experience and specialist as a cross-platform mobile developer in both hybrid- (Cordova and Ionic Framework) and native (Xamarin) platforms.
After this, I gained interest in (app/web) product development and started a job as Tech Lead as a startup to learn the ropes on this hands-on.
