Hey everyone 👋

I am super thrilled that we started this community forum and looking forward to meeting you all! 🤩

We started [weweb.io](http://weweb.io) with my co-founders Marc & Florian three years ago - here is a picture of us at Station F - an amazing startup campus in France -, a couple of weeks after we launched our v1. I’m the guy in the middle ✌

Before starting [weweb.io](http://weweb.io), we built a mobile app in rails that lets people choose music in their favourite bars. We were working on it aside from our regular jobs and had a ton of fun given the nature of our users 🥳 🍻

In the process, we met many great people with a strong entrepreneurial spirit. We were inspired by their grit and willingness to create innovative products. This eventually led us to quit our jobs and start weweb 🦾

### A little bit about me

- I grew up in Dijon, Burgundy, where the mustard comes from! We also do great wine in this region 🍷

- I love music and I play the guitar 🎸 While I love listening to all kind of music, I’m a fan of metal music 🤘. Happy to share with all the metal heads out there 😃

- I studied finance & marketing and started my career in consulting 👨‍💼 Needless to say that I got much more excited by the web and I’ve been happy working on a startup ever since 👨‍💻

- I lived in 🇫🇷 , in 🇹🇷 and in the 🇺🇲. I love being in an international environment, meeting different people and learn about all the amazing cultures on 🌍

I am looking forward to sharing with you all about web dev, no-code / low-code, metal music and how to build an exciting future 🤗
