Meet the Team: Ali Shahid

Who are you and what do you do?

Hey, hello! My name is Ali Shahid, and I recently started as a Front-end developer at TodayTomorrow! At TodayTomorrow, I’ll be working on various projects, mainly using programming languages and frameworks like React and Flutter.

What is your favourite digital application at the moment?

I’m a big fan of Notion. It’s an awesome tool that I use both at work and at home. The ability to create your own templates makes it super customisable and perfectly adaptable to your personal needs.

What makes you a digital enthousiast?

I think the possibilities within the digital world are amazing. The fact that you can communicate with someone on the other side of the world in seconds, or access a world of information from a device that fits in your pocket, that still blows my mind.

What is your biggest digital irritation?

I find it really annoying that these days you have to create an account for almost everything, just to read an article or download a file. No, I don’t want to make an account, just give me access!

Where do you come from?

I was born in Capelle aan den IJssel and lived in Rotterdam for the first five years of my life. After that, I moved to The Hague, where I still live today. My roots, however, are in Pakistan.

What is your background?

I’ve loved computers since I was a kid. I even hacked our home computer once just so I could play games on it! You should’ve seen the look on my sister’s face when she found out!

What is your speciality at TodayTomorrow?

I’m kind of a jack of all trades! I know a lot about web development, a bit of design, and even some AI. At TodayTomorrow, though, I’ll mainly be focusing on the Front-end.

Where does your drive come from?

Ever since my childhood, I’ve been fascinated by the power of computers and the internet to make the world a better place. Through digital solutions, I hope to create a lasting, positive impact.

What is another dream of yours?

I have countless dreams! I’d love to run a marathon someday, visit every country in the world, and (believe it or not) travel to space one day!

What's something nice about you that most people don't know?

I’m really into retro tech! I even collect cool vintage gadgets, like old iPods. 😄 I also write fiction in my free time, and one day I hope to publish a book filled with my own stories.
