Portrait of Adrian Sandu

I am a UX Front End Developer based in Iasi, Romania. I focus on "front-of-the-front-end" development, CSS architecture, front-end performance improvement, and user experience. I help companies of all sizes write better code on the presentation layer and create high-performance scalable user interfaces.

I have over eighteen years of experience, accumulated as I was being employed in web agencies, in-house teams, hired as a contractor, or working on my own as a freelancer.

Speaking

2017 has brought my debut as a speaker in an international event. I have been also heavily invested in running two local meetups in Dublin, Ireland (DublinCSS and CodePen Dublin), as well as helping to run another large meetup (Dublin UX). I am now looking forward to get involved with the local meetups in Iasi and get back to helping other developers reach their full potential.

Adrian is a talented and critical thinking web developer. Developers sometimes just take marching orders and code up future problems, and Adrian is far more strategic in his approach, clearly seeking to understand the problem that must be solved and careful to weigh all the impacts to the code base as he implements. These are valuable attributes, and my favorite part is that his QC of his own work is truly next level. Combine all this with his passion for great code, it has been an honor to work with him.

Kevin Barber Lean Labs

Adrian worked in my development team and was hardworking, diligent and thorough. He was a ‘go to’ person and had a great work ethic. The results of his work were excellent and he often turned excellent work around way ahead of schedule. He also came to me with ideas on a variety of topics and areas and is very active in the various dev communities.

Adrian has a huge amount of expertise in front end web development, which he implemented on a large re-design project our teams worked on together.

He brings top quality experience in building future-proof websites, a good understanding of the mind of a designer, and strong problem solving skills.
