About

Long story short

Born and raised in Novi Sad, Serbia. I spent most of my childhood running around the banks of the Danube River and exploring Fruška Gora mountain. From the age of seven, I started playing basketball, which set me on an unexpected path and played a key role in my future. So, the young Danilo was dedicated to both studying and playing basketball (even winning a Junior Championship of Serbia), until a significant change occurred. Combining my basketball skills with good grades, I crossed the Atlantic to study at Saint Joseph's College in Rensselaer, Indiana, where I successfully graduated. Upon returning to Serbia, I faced new professional challenges.

Software development

While in college, I developed a love for writing software, particularly web applications. So it's no surprise that I've been developing web apps since the start of my professional career. Of course, the tech stacks I've used have evolved, transitioning from the initial Angular and simple Express.js to React and NestJS today. One thing's for sure: whether by choice or circumstance, JavaScript has been a constant companion throughout my developer journey. Currently, I primarily use TypeScript, React, and NestJS, along with the necessary supporting technologies to bring applications to life.

My professional journey has been a rewarding one, marked by collaborations with a few exceptional companies. I've perfected my skills at Compass Holding and NeonCat, and I'm currently fortunate to be contributing to the success of Symphony, where I previously had the pleasure of working as well.
