About

I've been building software since I was fifteen — first a tool for sending personalized marketing emails, then a marketplace for industrial printers. I never really stopped.

Today I'm an IT Solutions Architect at Hamburg Airport — aviation IT where safety, security and high availability are the whole point. I'm building an enterprise service bus on Node.js and helping shape the cloud architecture.
