My story

Even as a kid, I was fascinated by technology, especially computers. That led me to studying computer science at the Technical School Centre Kranj. I soon realised I wanted to continue down that road. After graduating high school, I enrolled as a student at the Faculty of Computer and Information Science in Ljubljana.
Coding at Optiweb is never boring; I encounter challenges every day and I gladly solve them.

If you work hard and you do your best, you can do anything.

What do you do when you have half an hour of free time?

I spend a lot of my free time playing sports. During the evenings, though, I love to watch a good movie.

Why coding?

I love solving logical riddles, mind games and mathematical problems.
The harder the task, the more interesting I find it because I always want to know the solution. Coding gives me the chance to tackle such challenges.
