Hi! I'm Merlijn, 29 years of age, currently living in The Netherlands.
As a creative developer, I enjoy learning about new techniques, to create new experiences and make existing ones even better. I like to work in a small team, but when I can focus on something all by myself, that's where I really shine.
I leverage a diverse skillset including full-stack web development, research & documentation, UI/UX design and much more.

I grew up with computers from an early age. As you probably have noticed, I do enjoy plenty of video games. Puzzle and adventure games are my favorites, but there are plenty of other genres I enjoy.
Alongside games, I've also grown to enjoy the more technical aspect of computers, both in terms of hardware and software. The latter grew from a hobby to a job!
While my study had a strong focus on (video) games, I decided software engineering is a better fit career-wise. I love digging into the nitty-gritty of a challenging task and learning in the process.
Even though a lot of my life revolves around the digital world, sometimes I just need a break from it all. My favorite thing to do at those times is to go outside – no matter the weather – and go for a nice walk. Nothing but the sound of nature to occupy my mind.
An introvert looking to make the world a better place by creating awesome things, with awesome people!
