 About me

I'm Alex, a 17-year-old apprentice software developer from Zürich, Switzerland. Currently I split my time between building real projects at my apprenticeship and studying at BZZ Horgen — frontend or backend, doesn't matter, if it ships I'm in.

I care about clean code, fast feedback loops, and shipping things that actually get used.

Focus Full-stack web development
Currently learning Advanced TypeScript · system design · DevOps
Recent win Regional ICT Championships 2026 — 4th in Zürich · 11th in Switzerland 🇨🇭
