Product Engineer
GitBook makes it easy to plan, centralize and share knowledge, from start to ship.
I help build features that allow users to distribute their docs, such as publishing it to sites or syncing with Github.
Frontend Engineer
Ticketswap is well-known in the Netherlands as the safest place to buy and sell tickets for events.
I was responsible for the buy-flow, working on ticket personalization, custom currencies, and more.
Lead Product Specialist
Framer is a design tool built on React, which allows designers to write and run custom code on top of their canvas.
As lead, I was responsible for our top Enterprise teams and helped with team strategy and onboarding new hires.
Product Specialist
I helped teams like Spotify, Airbnb, Shopify and more leverage code in Framer and build custom solutions.
Think of components connecting gamepads for EA Games, design systems of Airbus, and barcode scanners connected to Shopify's prototypes.
Community & Support
I started out in a role dedicated to writing tutorials, recording videos, and providing support.
As Framer could get technical quickly, I decided to learn Javascript and React. This sparked a passion for coding that I still have today.
Things I built
I pursued a degree in Psychology, and only after joining Framer I started learning code.
Below are some projects that taught me a lot along the way.
Invoicer.studio
At the start of 2023 I set out to build a complete app from scratch to learn a new topic in web dev. This became an app to generate invoices, to learn more about pdf's and creating a live UI editor in the web.
Workout tracker
As a frequent gym visitor, I wanted to track my workouts and get certain functionality like easily checking my previous stats. I decided to build a PWA with my own tiny back-end, as I didn't have much experience yet with things like PWA's, node, and Firebase back then.
Aside from learning new tech, my other motivation was that I now had full control over which features I could create for my workouts.
Trust factors on Ticketswap
At Ticketswap, we were aiming to shorten the buy-flow. This meant we'd possibly eliminate a page that displayed important trust factors. For a hackathon day, I explored how we could retain these by displaying them sooner in the flow in a fun and interactive way.
The project was very well-received and approved to go from a hackathon project to a production feature.
