Hi there,
My name is Jeppe Schaumburg Jensen and I'm a teacher in topics related to front-end development, interaction design, music and productivity.
Front-end development
I started developing websites for desktop computers in 1999 and in 2000 I started developing my first websites for the mobile web as well.
I have been a graduate teaching assistant in an introductory course about web design and development.
I currently work as a front-end developer at one of the biggest global web agencies, Isobar.
Interaction design
I have a Master of Science in Information Technology with a specialization in Interaction Design and User Experience.
I have worked as a user experience designer at the biggest Danish online webshop: Saxo.
Music
When not working with the web I work as a professional musician, mostly playing the drums in various bands. I also consider myself as an expert in using Ableton Live for live performances, with a lot of experience in how to create and use backing tracks.
Productivity
I have spent many hours to improve my workflow and productivity by reading books about the topic and experimenting with different techniques, tools, software and apps.
