Hallo.
I'm ulrike (or just rike) and I am a software developer from Berlin, Germany with a focus on web technologies including · JavaScript · Node.js · HTML5 · CSS3 · React · Vue.js · Redux . GraphQL · Django · Flask · PostgreSQL · MongoDB and others. I hold a Master's degree in computer science and I have worked as online content manager, librarian and freelance web developer. Annually, I give talks for beginners in web development at Informatica Feminale in Bremen to inspire more women to get into web development. Sometimes I produce audio podcasts for scientific purposes and I like writing. If you'd like to connect, do not hesitate to drop a line!
