Estonia·working on Teams SIP Gateway


About

I build web applications, user interfaces and cloud services. I care about how a product works as a whole, from the interface to the systems behind it. At Microsoft, I work on calling services for Teams. Previously, I built web, mobile and VR products and led development at a product studio. I started coding at fifteen in Skopje and now live in Estonia.
