I am Lucas Neuhaus, a 25-year-old web developer with an ever-growing interest in everything Web. Despite facing challenges like dyslexia and ADHD, my passion for coding and UI design led me to get on a self-taught journey since around 2018. While I left the traditional path from education as a college dropout, my determination and resilience pushed me to acquire valuable skills in the field. Presently, I thrive as a React Front End Engineer at Landau Media GmbH, pushing new technologies and web standards. In the past, I worked for small start-ups and dipped my toes into freelance web development. Proposing a speech at a tech conference for the first time is a significant milestone for me, inspired by the captivating experiences gained from attending WeAreDevelopers World Congress and especially Beyond Tellerrand . I am eager to share my unique insights and journey, hoping to inspire fellow tech enthusiasts to embrace their individual paths and succeed in this ever-evolving industry.
