Alexander Sandberg

I’m a self-taught, product-minded iOS/macOS Engineer with a background in web development and product design.

When asked to describe myself with one word, I often reply with curious.

I sometimes write articles as a way to understand things better, because the person who says he knows what he thinks but cannot express it usually does not know what he thinks. (1)

Occasionally, I also publish other random stuff that I find worth sharing with the world on my blog.

I’ve always been an avid learner who loves to seek new knowledge. Over the years, I’ve collected many ”life lessons” that I want to bring along with me on this journey we call life.

I like to solve problems by building solutions because the best way to complain is to make things. (2)
