My name is Andrei Popa and I’m a software engineer. The word engineer is cool, it means a person who designs, builds and maintains something. And that’s my favorite perspective on software development: we design and build things with code.

My professional experience is in full stack development and I generally like building things for the web. I enjoy chasing down and fixing bugs (it’s like a puzzle that requires a very good understanding of the entire system in order to solve efficiently or at all) and I’m a fan of keeping code (and things in general) organized.

What do I do when I’m not coding? Well, mountain biking is my favorite outdoor activity. So far, I’ve mountain biked some of the best trails in the US, and I’m working on making that “the best trails in the world.” I also like playing volleyball to satisfy my competitive side. When I’m inside, I spend time playing fingerstyle guitar (check out my YouTube channel), watching YouTube videos or reading.

Let’s see, what else?!… I’m taller than you (most likely). That’s all I can think of. If you have any questions, feel free to shoot me an email.

- Andrei.
