Who I am

I am currently a Master student at Aalborg University, in Human Centered Informatics as well as an Android Developer. My interests lay in UX design and all kinds of interactions between users and the machine. Though I also have a good knowledge of the system and I have a certain proficiency in programing for different platforms at different abstraction levels. Ultimately I believe that adaptativity and critical thinking are the best skills a system designer or a developer can offer.
