The story behind the code

This is separate from the portfolio: a personal narrative - origins, values, and the "why" behind the projects.

Origins

I grew up in Niš, Serbia. In high school (ETŠ “Mija Stanimirović”) I set clear goals: which technologies to learn, and how far I wanted to go with them. From that point on, I dived into programming and have been working with it for over five years.

Freelance over formal

I’ve been programming professionally as a freelancer for more than 5 years, delivering projects for clients and staying up to date with modern technologies. University was always secondary - something I kept on the side while my main growth came from real work and self-driven learning.

Bias for practicality

I focus on practical outcomes: cutting clicks, reducing mental overhead, and making performance seamless. If it makes the experience smoother, that’s the right direction.

Today

I’m doing a Master’s in CS at ATVSS, but the truth is I’ve already taught myself most of that content years earlier. My real path is self-directed: staying current, building, and shipping systems where front-end polish meets back-end reliability.

Outside the editor

Languages, fitness, and a long list of hobbies keep me moving forward. I like learning broadly enough to connect ideas - and deeply enough to make them practical.
