Bring Your Dream Project to Life with Expertise and Professionalism!
Hello, I'm Arthur, a 21-year-old freelance Software Engineer. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Applied Computer Science with a specialization in Software Engineering from HOWEST University of Applied Sciences, where I graduated magna cum laude. I enjoy creating solutions for the problems I encounter online.
As a graduating student at HOWEST, I won a ticket at the Flutter Belgium Meetup to join the FlutterCon Europe 2024 in Berlin. The event was held at the CityCube Berlin. The conference was a three-day event, and it was packed with interesting talks, workshops, and networking opportunities.
As I come to the end of my studies for the bachelors degree at HOWEST university, we have to create a personal website and blog. On this website we should report the events that we attended, the projects we worked on, and the experiences we had during our studies.

Jari Valentine en ik op bezoek bij Dexxter in Mechelen. We spraken met medeoprichter Stan de Pauw over hun reis in de wereld van IT-startups. In deze aflevering van de HOWEST Student Podcast bespreken we de uitdagingen, innovaties en leermomenten van Dexxter.
Last week, I had the privilege of attending a tech meet where Michael Seghers, the founder of Sweet Mustard and Team Lead of VRT Max, was the keynote speaker.
Michael's talk was centered around the full flow in software development. He shared his experiences and insights, shedding light on the intricacies of the software development process. From the initial stages of gathering requirements and designing the system, to the development, testing, and deployment stages, Michael covered it all.
I recently had the opportunity to attend the Flutter Belgium Meetup 2024 at HOWEST. It was an enlightening experience to see what Flutter is truly capable of and how developers are using it to solve complex problems.

Dit jaar had ik de kans om de afstudeerbeurs bij te wonen, een evenement dat me waardevolle inzichten gaf in verdere onderwijsmogelijkheden. Het was een eye-opener en heeft me overtuigd om volgend jaar een master in Computerwetenschappen te volgen.
The Cyber Security Challenge Belgium (CSBE) is an annual event that brings together young and aspiring cybersecurity enthusiasts from across the country. The challenge is designed to test and hone the skills of participants in various aspects of cybersecurity, from network security to cryptography, and from web security to digital forensics. It is a capture the flag competition specifically tailored for IT students.
On the final day of the HOWEST Dublin week, we had the privilege of visiting Google's Dublin site.
Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed and while waiting for our guides, I had the opportunity to relax in a massage chair, a small but delightful perk of the Google office.
On Thursday, we had the opportunity to visit Meta's new office in Dublin. Despite the visit being relatively short, it was packed with excitement and fun.
The highlight of our visit was a quiz that Meta had organized for us. The quiz was a test of our knowledge and quick thinking, and I am proud to say that I emerged victorious. Winning the quiz was not just about the glory, but also about the prizes - a Meta notepad and a UK USB power dock. These are not just souvenirs, but reminders of the knowledge I gained and the fun I had at Meta.
