PORTFOLIO: NICLAS JENSEN
frontend developer
+ language specialist
Welcome! My name's Nick, and I'm a frontend developer with a background in freelance translation and a knack for problem-solving, communication and collaboration.
I spent nearly a decade working with natural languages as a freelance translator, and as my interest in the world of programming languages grew, I eventually decided to pursue a career in the tech sector.
I've taken a project-based approach to learning programming, and samples of my work can be found below. I'm currently looking for a junior developer position, and I'm always open to learning new things, so if you think I might be a good fit for your team, please don't hesitate to get in touch!
