About Me/ Who Am I?

I am highly motivated individual looking always looking for a new challenge. With excellent communication and organizational skills I have the ability to work alone, achieve results and can adapt to teamwork with great ease. I have the most fun when optimizing and automating business processes.

My proudest moment was when I got married and when my son and daughter were born. I am passionate about sports, especially tennis, volleyball, beach-volleyball, soccer and skiing as well. The most important thing about life is being in control of your life and to do what you love and I am trying to follow it as much as possible.

I have finished Faculty of Economics, MSc degree, combination of Finance and IT.

With 25+ years of experience programming customized Microsoft Excel VBA applications, I have helped hundreds of people to optimize their tasks, including:

  • generating custom reports
  • preparing Shopify import files
  • creating custom UDF (User Defined Functions)
  • CSV processing
  • XML import/export
  • data scraping through XMLHTTP protocol and DOM parsing
  • data analytics and Pivot Tables
  • MySQL Power Pivots

Besides my Office skills, I also have 15+ years of experience programming customized PHP/MySQL web modules and applications, including:

  • building custom website calculators
  • using API connectivity in relation with XML, JSON data processing
  • auto-pilot data scraping on Cron jobs
  • I prefer using MySQL databases, Bootstrap 4, jQuery, JavaScript, responsive CSS
