Turcanu.
Software Engineering student at VIA University College, building applications with Java, Python and C#. I also work freelance in video editing.
About
Two passions,
one way of working.
I study software engineering at VIA University College. I hold Certiport certifications in Python, databases and device configuration, and I spent two years teaching IT and robotics workshops at ROBOCODE.
Outside class, I edit videos. I cut promos and short form content in After Effects for clients who need raw footage turned into something people actually finish watching. Pairing the two wasn't really a plan, it just happened, and now I split my time between them fairly evenly.
I'm a motivated and adaptable student with experience in IT training, workshops, and project coordination. I have certifications in Python, Databases, and Device Configuration, plus skills in C++, Java, and web development. I enjoy solving problems, working in teams, and contributing to innovative projects.
Right now I'm looking for a part time student job.
Experience
Studenterunderviser
Teach and support students all over Denmark, filling the gaps between what they like and what they can do in the future.
IT Assistant Teacher
Taught programming fundamentals and ran robotics workshops, from first Python scripts to building and coding actual robots.
Projects
CloverNet
A community management system built for a fictional eco-village. CloverNet tracks communal tasks, environmental actions, point-based rewards and exchanges between residents. The project covered the full development process, from requirements and use cases to a Java application and a separate read-only web interface.
Flight Booking System
A Java-based flight booking system developed around a client-server architecture. The application handles flight searches, bookings and user management, with administrative functionality for managing the underlying flight data. The project also includes automated tests and a structured relational database design.
Social Media Platform
A modular social media platform built around a simple CRUD-focused Web API and a Blazor front-end. The server uses Entity Framework Core with SQLite for persistence, while the application is split into separate projects for the network, persistence, domain entities and repository contracts. A major feature will be a highly customizable profile builder, giving users control over how their profiles look and feel.
Portfolio Website
My personal developer portfolio, designed and built from scratch. It combines project documentation, personal information and an intentionally unconventional visual style into a single interactive site. The project is continuously updated alongside my studies and software work.
Video Editing
I edit video freelance, mostly promos and short form content in After Effects.
