About me
Hey! Thanks for stopping by!
My name is John Patrick but my friends call me JP. I was born and raised in Oslo, Norway.
In 2020, I moved to the United Kingdom to study Computer Science at De Montfort University in Leicester. I went straight from high school to employment in the cyber security industry, but I found out that it wasn’t for me and I realized that I wanted pursue a career in software engineering instead.
I do a lot of things. I love cooking, programming, making music and DJing. I used to have a radio show from 2016 to 2020 on the internet station rekt.network, where I played 2 hour long drum & bass sets every Sunday.
My first programming language was Python, which I still write today, albeit a lot less than I used to. My new primary programming language is C#, a language I picked up during my employment at SuperOffice, where my job was to revamp and modernize an old resource management system using ASP.NET Core and Angular. By old, I mean .NET Framework 1.0 kinda old.
Why don’t you check out some of the things I’ve made here?
I am available for hire! #
I’m looking for work starting in May 2023. I’m open to pretty much anything related to software engineering - backend development is where I am the most skilled, although my frontend skills are steadily improving. I have some leadership experience and enjoy mentoring others, but solving complex software problems is where I thrive.
My contact details are in my CV linked above.
