ABOUT ME

My name is Aleksandra. I’m a front-end developer based in Stockholm. I have been working professionally as a web developer for nearly 5 years. Prior to that I graduated from the Hyper Island Frontend Developer Program.

I have a very inquisitive mind, which means I’m constantly questioning, analyzing, and looking at processes from different perspectives.

Here’s where I should get to the point, list my skills, and show off my work... I promise, I’ll get there.

First, though, here’s something you should know about me: I am a big-picture thinker.

Here’s a glimpse into my background that shaped me, to help you get a sense of the kind of person I am.

As a teenager I became a licenced glider pilot.

I came to Sweden 9 years ago, on my own, without a plan or money.

I got a great interest in psychology.

I've worked in various fast-paced service jobs including retail and the restaurant industry. I worked also as a dog walker.

I enjoy exploring new ways of self-expression. I practiced mixing music, which resulted in a few gigs around Stockholm.

I also collaborated with a few international alternative clothing brands when I was growing my social media reach to 100k followers. Along with that, I picked up an interest in photography and photo editing using Adobe Software.

...where am I going with this?

Experimenting with creative software has led me to becoming ~~obsessed~~ passionate about coding and development, which allows me to create new value utilising already gained skills/perspectives/experiences as contributions to new solutions

Taking chances and calculating risks, required resourcefulness, flexibility and adaptation to new situations. Therefore deep diving head-first into new settings was always conscious choice of forcing my development and challenging myself in unknown areas.

My personal hobbies like psychology aid in effective communication across teams which is essential especially when working primarily remotely. I found it also very helpful with understanding and adapting to dynamics within the team and understanding end-users.

My extroverted nature of a curious kid plays probably the biggest role; through socializing and A LOT OF QUESTIONS (yes, I am THAT person) I got to learn new things and understand different perspectives - see the bigger picture, analyze it, and look for opportunities.
Now that I've introduced myself, let's collaborate and create something awesome together!
