Resume
Introduction
My name is Adonis Kakoulidis and I am a Software Engineer from Thessaloniki, Greece.
I specialize in Frontend web development with a focus on clean and efficient (S)CSS and JavaScript code with over 9 years of experience. I've studied Software Engineering at the Technological Institute of Central Greece and my tools of trade consist of a text editor, a Linux Distribution (usually ArchLinux), a terminal emulator, various CLI tools, Adobe Photoshop and more.
In my free time, I usually try to put my imagination and creativity into implementing stuff with SCSS and JavaScript (usually in codepen or codemagic) and create or contribute on new and exciting open source side-projects.
My past is filled with design-oriented projects, primarily digital art using tools like Adobe Photoshop, Inkscape, Adobe After Effects and Cinema4D. From photo manipulation, to 3D modeling, to abstract 3D art and special video effects.
