Introduction

My passion for technology dates back to kindergarten, but my real programming journey began around 2016 with JavaScript. As a self-taught developer, I gained my skills through open-source contributions, as well as reading various project documentations and blog posts.

Past experience

I have been a core maintainer of node-fetch, a popular Node.js library. Later on, I became the first engineering hire at myPolitics, a Polish startup focused on promoting civic attitudes and political education.

After that, I briefly studied computer science at the Military University of Technology in Warsaw, Poland, before dropping out.

Nowadays

I’m the founder of Parsify and a software engineer at Omni Calculator.

Highlights

I participated in Hack The North, North America’s largest hackathon, several times (both online and in-person). I also appeared on the JS Party podcast, with a conversation featured in Nadia Eghbal’s book Working in Public: The Making and Maintenance of Open Source Software.

Interests

Outside of work, I enjoy traveling and reading fiction, especially the works of Steinbeck, Hemingway, and Coetzee.

Social

You can connect with me on Bluesky, GitHub, LinkedIn.
