    Gained a solid software development foundation, focusing on theoretical and practical aspects as well. Completed coursework in algorithms, data structures, and software engineering principles. Worked on various projects, including a DHI project that involved developing a full-stack web application. My bachelor thesis was about hand gestures in virtual meetings, and if there exists a natural gesture set that can be mapped to actions such as volume control. Spoiler: There was not a natural gesture set. But we got a lot of other interesting findings from the data we gathered and analyzed. You can read more about the project here which was done with my partner Mads Roager (opens in a new tab).
