01. About Me
Hi! I am a junior Frontend Developer, born and raised in Alingsås. I am perceived as a positive guy who is eager to help and service-oriented.
I have no issues with new tasks. Rather, I am curious and motivated to develop my skills and learn new things. I enjoy collaborating but also have no problem working independently.
I like to be organized and meticulous with the tasks I receive. I have no issues being flexible and helping out where it is most needed.

Frontend Developer @ Kokokaka Creative Studio
At Kokokaka, I had the opportunity to truly explore and develop my creative and technical side as a front-end developer with a focus on UX/UI.
I worked with a variety of technologies, including HTML, CSS, React, WordPress, and even AR technologies. I also delved into Photoshop and Illustrator, which broadened my skills in both development and design.
I had an independent role where I often had to solve problems and conduct research on my own, but I greatly appreciated the support and insights I received from my colleagues.
This is how my supervisor described me: (translated to English) 'Simon is always very focused and dedicated to his work. When he encounters problems, he tries to find solutions using AI, forums, and tutorials. He is independent and meticulous.' I also received a very nice letter of recommendation from Kokokaka, which you can download above.

Gent´s Hat
In this school assignment, we have built a webshop for a fictional hat company. This webshop allows the user to add and edit the number of products in their shopping cart. When the user chooses to check out their placed order, they can fill in their personal information in a validated form. After the purchase is completed, the user receives an order confirmation. On the page, there is also the option to edit, add and remove products in the form of an admin.
