Hi There!
I'm Gene Zijlmans
01. About

Hello there! I'm Gene, a web dev, (as you might have guessed with the title).


Growing up, my passion for video games led me to delve into programming. I started with Scratch and then progressed to creating games in Python using Pygame. Last year, I took part in the Codam piscine, where I honed my programming skills collaboratively in groups, working on projects written in C.


Today I'm enthralled by web developement. Creating new experiences, implementing eye pleasing designs and making them come to life with animation is what I do best.


When I'm not coding, you'll likely find me practicing my other hobbies, such as brewing coffee, skateboarding, or hanging out with friends, among many more!
