Born in Rostock, I've been coding since my teenage years, which eventually led me to earn a Master's in IT from the University of Helsinki. My career has been a steady climb from backend engineer to full stack lead, with a strong emphasis on complex, regulated industries like fintech and healthcare. I thrive on the challenge of making brittle legacy systems talk to modern, cloud-native stacks, and I get a real kick out of optimizing a slow API or designing a resilient data pipeline. Outside of work, I'm probably tinkering with home automation or exploring the Baltic coast, always looking for that perfect balance between system design and the simple things in life.
