Hi there!
I'm Paul, a creative front-end developer from Goes, The Netherlands.
I work at Maxxton in Middelburg, building software for the hospitality branch.
Besides work, I'm a father, a husband and I work on- and write about ideas of my own.
Feel free to contact me at contact@paulvandendool.nl or tweet @ me at @PaulvdDool.

My first encounter with HTML was when I played around with my CU2 profile. Then came .dk websites primarily for the game @MapleStory. This was in my early teens (‘00 - ‘05). I simply liked being able to create something. I kept self-learning and picked a related college education.
