hi 👋, I'm Mateja Srejić,
a developer building tools for education and community
Autobiography
I’m a high school junior from Subotica (Serbia) who’s been coding since 9 and I love turning small ideas into tools people actually use. I'm a leader by nature when I know the topic – organizing youth events, mentoring peers and collaborating with schools all because helping others navigate education motivates me as much as building. Most days I split time between web/mobile work and competitive programming, then reset by doing sports or hanging out with friends. I’ve earned some awards along the way, but I care more about my momentum: to learn fast, ship often and share what I know. I’m happiest when something I build removes friction for someone else and sparks them to try building too.
