A glourious flying pizza slice

Hello there! My name is Jeroen and I'm a UX Engineer.

A UX Engineer is a Front-End Engineer who sits on a cross-functional design team and helps facilitate collaboration between design and engineering.

I started as a freelance designer and developer, but in recent years I've focused on frontend development. This has given me a special perspective on how to approach a project and visually implement it effectively.

I'm comfortable working with different teams, including Design, Content, and Engineering, to find the right solutions and deliver high-quality products.

This helps to avoid unrealistic requirements and surprises, resulting in less frustration and better products. A solid design system is key to a smooth workflow, strong brand, and maintainable code.

I enjoy life off screen, doing photography (you can check my Instagram), playing music or hiking and climbing.

December, 2023

I'm getting ready to move back to the center of Barcelona, to the same studio I was living back in 2020.

Codewise I've been learning Ruby on Rails. Reminds me of the time I was doing PHP, kind of missed it. Aside from that, in the last week I've been feeling more curiosity about AI technologies. Maybe I will get into it more seriously soon.
