For a second year in the row, Jisse<\/a> will be joining us on the stage of Meet Magento Croatia,<\/a> this time with \u201cConnecting GraphQL to your own React project\u201d. His expertise in driving innovation throughout the Magento ecosystem and dedication to delivering best-in-class implementations earned him the Mover title in Magento Masters program<\/a>. <\/p>\n

We are lucky his spy career didn\u2019t work out! <\/span><\/p>\n

Jisse, first of all, congratulations on being recognized as a Mover in Magento Masters program! Considering all the effort you give to the community and the platform itself, there\u2019s no doubt you are one of the individuals that deserves this title! Where do you find the time to contribute with all the work and projects you\u2019re involved with?<\/p>\n

\n

It is quite an honor to be a Magento Master. And it is part of the recognition by the community, which is again one of the reasons why I do what I do. Where do I find the time for all of the stuff that I do? I don’t know! It just happens. I see myself as capable of working hard and to make life simple, I just work hard. And every time that you have the feeling that you lack time, just take a breathe and enjoy what you’re doing. This makes life in the Magento community for me a rush – I love it!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Why Magento? For you, what makes it so special to put all of this energy into everything around it?<\/p>\n

\n

I have to say Magento 1 was important to my business, my way of making money. However, Magento 2 has changed a lot for me. It showed me a new learning curve, new things I could become good at, more focus on developer stuff. I guess I’m a nerd, I get energy out of technical things. And Magento 2 has so much to offer that I can’t stop learning.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

How did your IT career even start? What did you want to be \u201cwhen you grow up\u201d?<\/p>\n

\n

I wanted to be a spy. And then a scientist. And then a cafe owner. I wanted many things in the past. However, I think my actual career started when I wanted to become something (an IT person) and then actually started to work to reach that goal. My first steps were behind a dark terminal with green letters, trying to work my way around a bash terminal of a PC running Debian somewhere in Australia in 1998. That’s when I got hooked into open source, and IT in general.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
