# ABOUT ME

Enthusiastic and ambitious person

I'm a curious and outgoing year-old, living with my girlfriend and our two children: a years old boy and a year old girl. I'm a "fynbo" with a capital F and love Harske Hubbi and old techno music.

As a passionate Linux enthusiast and open-source contributor, I've dedicated the last years to full-stack development. During this time, I've gained expertise in a range of technologies including Node.js, TypeScript, Vue.js, FeathersJS, React, PostgreSQL, Azure, MongoDB, DevOps and more.

Currently employed at Danfoss , a prominent Danish company that is globally renowned for its sustainable solutions.
With colleagues across China, India, Ukraine, Slovenia, Poland, and Denmark, I've honed my remote work skills, effective communication, and team collaboration.

In my daily life and my spare time, I code small projects, play Counter Strike, and spend time with my girlfriend & family.
I'm on the board of a local non-profit organization called Odeology where I occasionally in the weekends work as a lighting technician at various electronic and techno music concerts and festivals.

# MY OWN PROJECTS

TaskStarter | VS Code extension

I've gotten frustrated with Azure DevOps Boards to find the next task I need to start. So I created a plugin for VSCode to do the work for me. 😅 Are you tired of having to go to your Azure DevOps sprint board to find the task you are supposed to work on just to get the ID of the task? 😓 Do YOU name your feature branches like this: 🤔 
  feature/${taskID}-${taskName}
Well it MIGHT just be your lucky day! 🍀 This extension fixes that! 💡 Now you can start your task from the comfort of your lovely little memory-hogging vscode "IDE." 💻 Just use the "Start new task" command, and it will display the tasks in the current iteration of your sprint! 🚀 Find the task you want to work on and hit enter. It will magically create a new branch with the correct name for you, no need to intervene. 🪄 When you are done with your branch, you simply use the command "Finish task" and it even creates A PULL REQUEST and you to it on Azure DevOps! 🙌 So what are you waiting for?! We are in short supply so get it while you can! ⏳ Task Starter - Github Task Starter - VSCode Marketplace
