About me.

I studied applied computational linguistics at the University of Stuttgart. The subject combines language, data and programming. Since then I’ve worked as a software developer in agencies, a startup and product teams.

I prefer code that is easy to understand, software that behaves predictably, and solutions that other people can maintain.

01

Find the cause

Understand the problem before changing the code.

02

Release and learn

Put working software in front of users early.

03

Write it clearly

In code, interfaces and documentation.

Still curious after logout.

Coding puzzles

Advent of Code as an annual excuse to try another language or revisit an old algorithm.

Home lab & tools

Self-hosted systems and small utilities built because “almost right” is still not right.

Gaming

Games with good systems, strong mechanics and enough depth to keep learning.

Retro gaming

Older hardware and games from a time when constraints shaped every design decision.

Strength training

Consistent work, measurable progress and the occasional lesson in patience.
