About me
I am interested in science, culture, music, history, politics and coffee. I am currently based in Berlin, but I love to travel and see new places. Professionally, I focus on frontend and backend development, performance optimization and machine learning. I have started programming when I was twelve years old and was fascinated by letting computers do work for me. After school I went to Cologne University and graduated in 2014 with a diploma (Master level) in Mathematics and Informatics. During my thesis in scientific computing I worked with Fraunhofer Institut and Nvidia on parallelization of algebraic multigrid methods for solving very large linear equations.
This is quite an abstract topic, and when I had finished my diploma I decided to focus on more concrete work. I started developing video games at a small startup and at the same time I recorded my first EP, followed by an album later on and played many tours and festivals all around Germany. After some time I decided to take a position in a small agency as a technical lead in web development. At this company I gathered useful insights that helped me to become freelancer in 2016 and I am very grateful for the support I had there and still have. Right now I am looking for new projects that hold interesting challenges, move me to interesting places and teach me new skills. Let's see what the future holds...
