Katrin Zaks

Hi, I’m Katrin – a frontend developer, accessibility advocate, content creator, and curious explorer living in Germany.

I moved into tech from a background in International Relations, not fully believing at the beginning that I could actually make it in the industry. What started as curiosity eventually became a career that has taken me across multiple countries, cultures, and challenges.

Today, with years of experience in frontend development, I help build accessible digital experiences, create educational content for developers, and share what I learn along the way. I’m passionate about making the web more inclusive and helping others grow their skills through practical tutorials, talks, articles, and videos.

My mission is to show that coding can be fun, approachable, and far less intimidating than it often seems. I want to help break down the barriers that keep people from entering tech and demonstrate that this is a field where women can thrive, lead, and build fulfilling careers. Through my content, I hope to make technology more accessible—not only for users, but also for the people learning to create it.

Whether I’m developing React applications, speaking about accessibility, creating content, or exploring a new city, I’m driven by a love of continuous learning and the belief that growth often begins just outside our comfort zone.

Through this website, you’ll find my projects, articles, videos, talks, and insights from both my professional journey and life abroad. I hope they inspire you to keep learning, building, and pursuing goals that once felt out of reach.
