About me

Hi! I'm Nadiia and I'm very glad to see you on my CV site. I'm a web developer with 7 years of commercial experience and more than 9 years of learning programming.
My career began in Vinnytsia, Ukraine, with creating special web-application for Donetsk National University. After I finished integrating the application into the university system, I decided to try my hand at a foreign company in Warsaw, Poland.
I have experience in different projects from individuals and small-businesses to application for the largest supermarket chain in Poland. Also, I worked for an international car subscription company located at Germany. My principle as a developer is to make complicated things easy and more efficiently. I like to learn new technologies and use it in practice.
Outside of work, I prefer learning languages, playing with my cat, reading books, travelling, watching movies and taking pictures (if you want, you could explore my pictures here). 😄
