My name is Marko Bajlovic, and I’ve been designing and developing for the web for 17 years. Throughout this journey, I’ve embraced creativity and exploration, continuously learning and refining my skills. I’m passionate about building, tinkering, and pushing the boundaries of design and development, striving to be a well-rounded creator.

I’m a full stack web developer and graphic designer originally from the New York and New Jersey area, now based in Puerto Rico. With extensive experience collaborating with various agencies, companies, and brands, I specialize in branding, logos, websites, apps, tools, and DevOps management.

When programming, I explore a wide range of technologies, focusing on LEMP, MERN, JAM, ML, AI, Python, and previously, web3 stacks. Currently, I’m concentrating on data and content aggregation, analysis, manipulation, and visualization. Startyparty and the news feed were built using these technologies and ideas.

In my spare time, you might find me riding a One Wheel, at the beach, experimenting with new tools and tech, or scouring the web for something new.
