INFORMATICS STUDENT & FREELANCE DEVELOPER

Bram den Elzen

I’m an Informatics student at Avans University and a freelance developer. Through client work and personal projects, I’ve gained hands on experience building modern websites and web applications. I enjoy turning ideas into practical digital products and continuously improving my skills as a developer.

My main focus is on front-end and modern web development, working with tools like Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind and Payload CMS. I like building clean, user friendly interfaces and creating solid technical foundations behind them.
