After I happened to visit an art museum in the Netherlands last year, I dreamed of creating a beautiful and useful digital work. I've been studying interactive web development ever since, and I started iOS development at the Apple Developer Academy from March this year. Two months later, I became a WWDC Winner and am still working hard to create apps to make the world a better place. I'm dreaming to meet an app that I want to develop for the rest of my life.
