About

Whakkee is the name I’ve been using for most of my online presence for years. I don’t remember where it came from, but I like the sound, so I kept it.

In 1984, I started programming on a Sinclair ZX Spectrum and after doing other stuff than programming for quite some time, I ended up in IT after all in 1996. I’ve been a software developer for about 25 years, and in 2021 I switched to (technical) project management. I still like to nerd out from time to time though.

Subjects that interest me are (not in any particular order, and this is not a complete list):

  • localization (l18n)
  • accessibility (a11y)
  • automation
  • process improvement
  • team collaboration
  • security
  • data engineering / data science
  • autolayout
