Hi there!
I'm Roel Reijneveld
I am a student and entrepreneur with a passion for internet, technology and people. Get to know me better or contact me directly ;)

My full name is Jan Roelof Reijneveld but I am normally addressed as Roel. I was born in Bennekom, The Netherlands and am therefore 19 years old. I speak Dutch (native), English (fluent, CEFRL C1), French (following CEFRL B2 course at school) and German (no official accreditation).
I am entrepreneurial by nature and a good leader. I can cooperate well and am process-oriented. I find contact with my clients both enjoyable and important. I am technically inclined and I have a good feel for modern technologies such as IoT, (self-driving) cars and almost all other technologies (on the Internet).
I have broad interests, which I developed early on in life. From the age of two I have been very active with computers and at the age of eight I had my first website. I am also very interested in politics, IoT, servers, electrical engineering, programming, networks and more. Besides technology, I am also very interested in history.
I have many technical hobbies but also others. In my free time I like to go ice-skating, cycling or do other water sports. I also organise a Christian youth service together with a group of young people. I am also very interested in national and international politics and therefore follow the news very closely.
I have gained a lot of experience in WordPress webdevelopment and am currently expanding my knowledge in technologies such as Laravel, Vue.js, Angular and other frameworks. Below is a selection of my most fun, larger and smaller projects that I have completed over the years or those who are still in progress.
Onesiforus is our school's party and activities committee. We are therefore responsible for organising activities and parties. Unfortunately, in our period there is a difficult situation because of the coronavirus. In our group, I am primarily responsible for technology, which includes software development. Of course, I am also co-responsible for other tasks such as a Christmas party, a summer party and a sports day.
NextGen is the local church service for the youth. Together with a group of young people, we organise a monthly service that involves a lot of technology. For example, I am responsible for live streaming to YouTube or Zoom, but I also get to learn a lot about audio technology and design.
I founded my company in August 2018. Initially I only sold shared hosting through reseller services but nowadays I also sell cloud services, reseller hosting, domain names, web development, ssl certificates and so on. I also sell modules, addons and plugins for WHMCS and WordPress among others since a year.
Since the 2022/2023 academic year, I have been pursuing the Bachelor's degree in Systems Engineering, Policy Analysis and Management at Delft University of Technology. This is a multidisciplinary study in which students are trained to properly analyse certain (technical) problems and improve them in cooperation with people/parties who have a more specific (educational) background. I have chosen to specialise in the field of Information and Communication.
In secondary school, I had extra English lessons. The extra lessons prepared me for the Cambridge Advanced English (CEFRL C1) exam which I could take in June 2021. In August 2021 I received my certificate.
I attended the Preparatory Science Education at Het Streek Lyceum from 2016 to June 2022. The direction in which I am being educated, translated into English: "Preparatory scientific education". In addition, I am following the extra elective called Technasium. In the Netherlands, a second foreign language in addition to English is compulsory at this level of education. I chose French, which I have been following since first grade.
