Quick Bits

My dear, here we must run as fast as we can, just to stay in place. And if you wish to go anywhere you must run twice as fast as that. - The Alice in Wonderland series by Lewis Carroll

Sounds like a modern development, doesn't it? 😄

Hi there! 👋 I'm Arseniiy Kapshtyk, a hardworking, proactive and self-motivated developer with over 2 years of programming experience. I'm passionate about diving into new technologies, learning new skills and facing exciting challenges head-on.

Starting with Excel macros to streamline legal work, I discovered a passion for coding that led me to become a developer and move to Finland. In 2024, I graduated from Helsinki Business College and Integrify Academy, adding formal technical qualifications to my legal background. This unique blend of experiences fuels my approach to problem solving in software development.

With a background in law and management, I've developed a knack for solving problems and adapting quickly. I thrive in a team environment and enjoy the process of collaboration, bouncing ideas around and coming up with creative solutions.

I keep up to date with the latest web development trends and apply this knowledge to every project.
