About
Nice to meet you. I'm Karo, a web developer. I love everything related to Javascript. I make use of three key strengths areas as a developer:
1. Strong Knowledge in Javascript
I've been coding with Javascript for years and I am proficient with the popular frameworks for frontend and backend such as React and Express. I am familiar with the best practices and pitfalls related to the language. I'm always motivated to write clean and maintainable code that uses the modern features of Javascript. Check out some examples on the projects-page.
2. UX Design Experience
I've worked earlier also as a designer and I have a lot of knowledge about usability, accessibility and testing practices based on projects with large enterprises in Finland and abroad. This experience is valuable also when working as a developer and communicating with designers, customers and end-users.
3. Business Background
I have a business degree and marketing experience that helps me to connect my development work to the business logic that the feature or service developed serves. I'm also skilled in working with several stakeholders and expressing my views and suggestions in a clear and concise way. I'm a team player and socially capable of working with different kinds of people.
Check out my skillset in detail down below. On my free time I dance salsa, play guitar and watch a ton of movies.

My skillset
My projects as a consultant have been in the fields of international development, retail, energy and pulp and paper industry. These projects range from enterprise intranets and CRM systems to marketing tools for mobile and web. I'm used to working both in Finnish and English.
