About me
I'm Twana Gul, 37 years old, and I live in Waddinxveen with my wife and two children. After working as a full-time architect for seven years and taking on occasional freelance web development projects, I decided in 2022 to fully embrace my passion for coding and switch careers. Now, I'm a self-taught software developer who loves creating beautiful and functional (web)applications, especially with Next.js / React. I first discovered coding back in 2009 and have been hooked ever since — it's something I truly enjoy and feel excited about every day.
