Kristian Mandrup has a master's degree in Computer Science from Copenhagen University.
He has been developing software since he got his first computer at the age of 12 and has always been curious and always asks the hard questions: why? He likes to push the techs to the limits and live on the bleeding edge. He is always on the move, on new adventures and explorations, since the techs and tools never feel quite good enough.
He is a toolmaker and an architect more than a traditional software developer. He has crossed various platform boundaries over the year and has lately shifted from the Ruby on Rails platform to the new frontier of Node.js and the MEAN stack. He is currently exploring single-page, real-time applications. He likes to combine many of the best techs available into a high-powered stack. This is where jQuery UI fits in perfectly.
You can find Kristian on GitHub at https://github.com/kristianmandrup and his Twitter handle is @kmandrup.
