Belgium

Software & Embedded Developer. I’ve always been someone who embraces challenges, whether it was adapting to life in Japan during my gap year or figuring out how to make a difficult idea work without a guide. My time abroad taught me that the most valuable lessons come when you step outside your comfort zone. This mindset carried over when I set out to turn my father’s idea into a functional medical device. With no prior experience in the field and no outside help, I taught myself 3D printing, electronics, and PCB design to bring his vision to life. The result of this journey can be seen at www.pred.be.
