Hi there, I'm Roy.
I love to write, either on my blog, or in my journals.
If I'm not writing, I'm probably reading.
If I'm not reading, I'm probably brewing coffee—preferably artisanally as a pour-over. I have a soft spot for craftsmanship and skills that demand it.
I write small to medium sized essays about topics such as reading, writing, thought and self-improvement, as well as programming, and philosophy. As long as it sparks something in me I'll write about it.
I'm currently Tech Lead at the Dutch Railways, where I try to make the world a better place by doing what I do best: create software. Before that I've been a Software Engineer at a few consulting companies. Before that I flipped burgers!
