About me

I'm a fullstack web app developer, freelancer, machine learning enthusiast, traveller and technology minimalist currently living, working and studying in Prague, Czech Republic.

Technology skills

NodeJS

Lately, I have mainly been working with NestJS framework.

NextJS

I have been working with React and NextJS for about 4 years. I most commonly use libraries like Tailwind CSS and MUI.

PHP

I have built many projects in PHP, especially in the past. I worked with plain PHP 7 (OOP) and later also with the Symfony framework and Twig template engine.

Python

In Python, I mainly worked on projects involving machine learning, neural networks and data processing in general. I have extensive experience with libraries such as NumPy, scikit-learn, TensorFlow/Keras, Matplotlib, Pillow, or Pandas.

Bash

I have over 10 years of experience working with various Linux distributions. I have also contributed to managing Linux servers on smaller projects and have written deployment scripts in Bash.

SQL

I have worked with relational databases in various PHP and NestJS projects, mainly with MySQL and PostgreSQL. Additionally, I have experience in data architecture and designing databases to align with business and project needs.

My travels

In addition to many small trips and a study internship in Portugal, in mid-2024 I went on an eight-month trip to Latin America, mainly to Argentina and Chile. You can watch our YouTube videos (in Czech) that document this journey. I have also written a practical travel guide to Easter Island.
