Editor's note · March 2026

From nurse to developer, always a pencil in hand.

Fullstack developer for three years, specializing in micro-services architecture (Rust, GraphQL, Next.js). I made a career change from nursing to tech in 2022, with a rigorous and collaborative approach to software development.

Alongside this, I've been drawing since childhood, mainly in watercolor and digital: humorous strips on Instagram (@louise.maviepassionnante), a children's book illustration, educational comics for medical laboratory patients…

Development and illustration are two worlds I cultivate in parallel. Outside my full-time job, I occasionally take on projects that truly interest me.
