Ruben Odegard
Full Stack Developer
Self-taught developer based in Oslo.
Me, myself & I
As a self-taught developer, I'm attempting take a step into a new career field that aligns with my longstanding passion for web development. As of now, I am balancing my current full time employment, studies and and programming, together with other hobbies. My personal projects have been a source of self-learning, problem-solving, and curiosity, and my open source projects in my portfolio showcases how I structure and work with code. As any developer, I spend a whole lot of time creating solutions to my own simple problems, just to see if I can solve it.
I like learning new technological tools and am a strong advocate for using the right tools for the job at hand. Everything becomes a bit easier when you understand that it's about how you absorb information and process it to create practical solutions for problem-solving.
Web development is something I am deeply passionate about, and I am ready to take on new challenges.
When I'm not glued to a screen, you'll find me in the bouldering walls at climbing centers around Oslo or running through the streets in search of better fitness.
