It’s time to meet one of our developers, Daniel Trochez!
The reason why I joined is quite simple: I just had an extremely good feeling about the company, the culture, and the people.
This and the fact that I can work with my preferred tech stack made the decision to join QueensLab an easy one.
That was when I took my first consultancy job at QueensLab as an object-oriented programming teacher. I had never taught programming to a whole class before, so I was a bit nervous about how it would go. Luckily it went well and it was fun.
I was very proud of myself for having the courage to step out of my comfort zone. I was also able to share some of my knowledge and experience.
The developers I look up to are all humble, curious, and dedicated. I would say that these are good qualities, not only for a developer but for all professions.
When I'm not in the office, I usually spend my time with friends, family and my girlfriend. I also like to do sports, so you might find me at the gym or on the running tracks.
Travelling is also something I enjoy, I love exploring new places!
Hobbies yeah, I have a few of those, probably more than I have time for. I have a habit of picking up new hobbies.
Daniel’s new Muay Thai studio
A new hobby I've taken up is playing bass. I always wanted to be able to play an instrument and bass seemed like a cool instrument to learn. I immediately bought one and now I'm trying to learn by watching YouTube videos.
Another hobby of mine is programming, which is amazing, I get to work with something I enjoy so much that it has become a hobby for me as well. At the moment I'm trying to improve my frontend skills a bit and I have a little side project where I'm creating a website for a friend.
Another big passion of mine has always been martial arts, currently Thai boxing or Muay Thai as it is called in Thailand. I've been doing Thai boxing for a few years now and I just love it!
I believe that success is defined as happiness. If you are happy with where you are in life and with what you do, then I would say you are successful.
I have always been an android person. However, there have been a few moments where I have seriously considered converting. It has not happened yet, but I might convert one day just to try out and see what life with an iPhone would be like.
My girlfriend once introduced me to a Belgian wheat beer called Blue Moon. It’s the best beer I have ever had! I always look for Blue Moon whenever I find myself in a bar.

That’s easy! I would be a monkey. I don't really know why, but I've always found monkeys to be interesting animals. I even have two monkey tattoos. Another animal would probably be a chameleon because I'm good at blending in with different groups of people.
I have of course plans for a chameleon tattoo as well.
I have a real weakness for pasta! So I could easily live on pasta, but if I had to choose one meal for the rest of my life, I would probably choose a mean lasagne with lots of cheese.
