Hi I'm Wouter van Marrum.

My career as a software developer started in 2016, but secretly it started in 2013 when I was working at a factory and I know I wanted to be able to provide more for my family.

I love working on all kinds of different projects. But more importantly I'm a dad of 2 amazing kids and have the best fiancé in the world.

Excited for Laracon EU 2025

Laracon EU is just three days away, and for someone who has been part of the Laravel community since 2011, this moment feels especially meaningful. Laravel has been more than just a framework—it’s been a place of growth, learning, and resilience. Some communities feel like villages, where people uplift one another, celebrate successes, and offer support in tough times. This year, Laracon brings the opportunity to connect with those I admire most, soak in insightful talks, and truly enjoy the experience. None of this would be possible without the unwavering support of my fiancé. And a special thanks to Aaron, whose infectious positivity continues to inspire.
