Hi, my name is Karl Norling and I'm here to clean up your span mess

I consider myself a super fast yet efficient developer, looking for somewhere to evolve, share knowledge and get inspired in my work. Working in the web environment can be a challenging, tangled experience sometimes, but I'm always looking at the newest emerging technologies such as CSS3 and HTML5 to find innovative ways to solve the problem at hand.

I'm a hard worker, but I'll never say no to a nice vacation.

I'll also enjoy my favorite TV shows now and then.
