Introduction

My name is Tomáš Válek. I studied Information Technology at Brno University of Technology, where I earned a bachelor's degree (more about the FIT BUT study programme). Programming and IT as a whole have been among my biggest interests since childhood. As a freelancer, I mainly focus on mobile app development and custom software solutions.

I'm the owner and developer of the Android app DashCam Travel, which has been available on Google Play for over 10 years. I developed and later sold Device Temperature Monitor internationally, giving me experience with the full process of developing, operating and selling an entire project.

In my free time, I enjoy being with friends, hiking and exploring nature, and I really like dancing — especially Bachata. I'm also passionate about restoring desert landscapes on Fuerteventura. Healthy living and balanced nutrition are important to me too.
