ABOUT KRUM GEORGIEV

Ever since I was a little kid, software development has been my passion. I still remember sitting in front of an Atari 800 computer, with the BASIC cartridge loaded in, making it print \"Hello, Krum\" for the very first time. As I went through the BASIC tutorial, it was almost magic, being able to get the computer to do whatever I wanted, just by typing in these funny little symbols, limited only by my own imagination and ingenuity. Throughout middle and high school, I latched on to any ideas for projects I could get, moving from \"Hello World\" all the way to a simple First Person Shooter engine, with dozens of projects in between. I learned C, then Lisp and Scheme (which really helped me with the JavaScript journey in the future), tearing through any books I could find on anything remotely related to software development. I was insatiable.This passion carried me through my education at New Bulgarian University. Here there were more resources available to me than I ever could have imagined as a kid. I studied new languages, algorithms, compilers, mathematical analysis and logic, all with pretty much the same fascination that drove me as a kid. And it was here that I learned truly how much there was yet to learn. So, now, in industry, this passion remains with me. There\'s certainly yet more to learn, yet more problems to solve, and yet more to build. And for this, I am very grateful. Now I am a senior front end engineer and consultant with more than 25 years experience proving my skills, vision and flexibility on a wide range of projects for companies and organizations such as BBC, CNN, United States Department of Defense, LMI Government Consulting, Euromoney, Meta, Adobe, Google, Vercel, Bosch, TX Group, faberNovel, Big Spaceship, BKWLD, Norton and more. Focusing on all of the aspects and implications of the technologies that are used to build each project, I bring to any team a wealth of experience as well as a passion for creative problem solving, attention to detail, teamwork, learning, and pushing the limits of technology while still developing for a positive user experience.Always trying to demonstrate an innovation and a keen eye for detail and a strong understanding of application design and architecture. I enjoy the challenge of difficult tasks, and I stay on the cutting edge of front-end technologies and methodologies.Former member of Technical Committee 39.
