Julian Wachholz

I am a Python and JavaScript engineer with a passion for performant and clean code. I love fast and beautiful websites, enjoy writing succinct documentation and using TDD. Sometimes I experiment with new technology to learn new skills for fun.

I'm in my mid twenties and live in the beautiful canton of Zürich, Switzerland. I enjoy riding motorcycles and playing board and video games with friends.
