About me

I am Nikola, currently pursuing my studies at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (FERI) in Maribor. My academic journey is largely driven by my interest in application and web development. I find the process of creating functional and user-friendly digital solutions both challenging and rewarding. This field allows me to blend creativity with technical skills, which I find particularly engaging.
Recently, I have developed an interest in the game of Go. The strategic depth and complexity of the game have captivated my attention, providing a stimulating mental exercise. Additionally, I have started exploring photography. Capturing moments and expressing visual stories through a lens has become a newfound passion, offering a different kind of creative outlet that complements my technical pursuits.
