Jelger Vitt

Within Online Vet Training, I handle everything technical behind the platform. I build new functionality, solve technical problems, and make sure everything keeps running the way it should.

I’ve always been drawn to complex systems and technical challenges. Long before modern website builders existed, I was already experimenting with HTML in Word back in 2001, building websites simply because I wanted to understand how they worked. Over the years, that curiosity evolved into a deep understanding of web development and custom technical problem-solving. Today, I especially enjoy projects that require creative layouts, advanced functionality, and thoughtful solutions.

After graduating from Ghent University (Master of Law), I’ve worked as a lawyer until I moved in 2011 from Ghent to Vancouver with my wife and our two cats. There, I spent more than a decade working as a professional wedding photographer before eventually focusing full-time on web development through Chunky Squirrel.

Outside of work, I spend a lot of time programming and exploring mathematics simply because I enjoy it. I also love weight lifting and listening to 90’s Belgian house music while working. In the interior of British Columbia, I’m also building my own wood-frame house by hand, which probably says a lot about how much I enjoy understanding how things are built.
