Work

  1. icapps

    Front-end Web App Developer

    now

    As a consultant I am dispatched to various clients to help with the development of React and React Native applications.

    For the past 5 years I have been helping the team at Sunrise with the development of the React and React Native applications for Yallo V and MySports, two streaming platforms.
    At the beginning of 2025 we started working on a complete rewrite of the Yallo TV platform, where I developed a new design system with improved consistency, accessibility, and performance. We released the new version in December 2025.

    I previously assisted in the development of React applications, design systems, and component libraries for clients such as Keytrade Bank, Telenet, and Kinepolis.

  2. novation

    Front-end Lead / Drupal Developer

    I originally started an internship via Devine in March of 2012, and subsequently joined the team full-time in June of that year.

    At the time, Novation was using an internally developed CMS targetting primarily small, static brochure websites. In order to tackle more complex projects and spend less time on maintenance, we started focusing on Drupal.

    As the team grew I took on more responsibility to guide and mentor junior developers, but also to improve our development processes and workflows.
    I developed an automated process and base set of components that allowed us to spin up new Drupal projects within minutes with our entire development set-up and base modules preconfigured and ready to go.

    In later years I developed a set of single page applications using AngularJS such as games for the Sven Nys Cycling Center, a ticketing and time tracking platform for the municipality of Houthalen-Helchteren and a digital brochure kiosk for Caparol.
