About me

Hello, my name is Grzegorz.

After many years of working in another industry, I changed my career to become a Java Developer. I am 38 years old and have a stable life, I don't chase anything or get distracted by anything, I can finally do what I love. I enjoy programming. Sometimes when learning new things I lose track of time, but I get great satisfaction from it. I had to achieve everything in life on my own, but it shaped my character, I am determined and willing to work. I don't like changing jobs often, I appreciate the nice atmosphere. Outside of work, I also teach children programming as a Coding Tutor. I teach mainly Scratch and Python. I treat it more as a hobby, because I like children and passing on knowledge. In this job, I managed to combine them. At the same time, I improve my soft skills.

I have been associated with another industry for many years, but the lack of development opportunities made me decide to change. I signed up for the Kodilla - Java Developer Plus bootcamp. It quickly turned out that programming was what I really wanted to do in life. After completing the course with excellent results, I continue to develop. I'm not a demanding bootcamper, I know I still have a lot to learn. I also benefited from private mentoring. I spend several hours a day studying, practically a second job, but I get real satisfaction from it. My English is at level B1 - B2, but I learn every day, I know it's a necessity. I also started postgraduate studies in JavaScript Developer, I want to expand my knowledge of JavaScript, React and Angular.

I encourage you to check out my projects here or on Github, where I describe them in detail in the README files. I tried to make each one a little different. For practical learning, I emphasized the use of various technologies, e.g. Docker, docker-compose, and various databases, e.g. PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or MySQL.

My best project DogShelterFriend has a demo version - LINK.

All Projects

In my free time, I like to go to various programming conferences, e.g. Confitura. I also attend Java User Group and meet.js meetings in Białystok.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time outdoors, I love taking care of the garden, and the sound of the lawnmower relaxes me :)

In a short time, I've become proficient in Java programming and am currently attending postgraduate studies, showcasing my dedication and ongoing development.

Teamwork Skills

Years of fruitful collaboration in my previous industry, introducing numerous innovations and maintaining a seamless production process, underscore my ability to work effectively in a team. Experience in teamwork during a 4-week group project, utilizing Kanban, Jira, Git, and mutual code review, demonstrates effective collaboration skills.
