My Career

Short and concise for you

I studied Business Computer Science as Bachelor’s degree, before doing a Master’s in Applied Computer Science, while working as a Java Software Engineer.

Then I feel in love with React and became a frontend developer, working for a startup and a UX agency where I learned a lot about UX design, working the agile way and leading people.

I started to build my own projects in this time, I call it indie hacking. You might also know it as bootstrapping. I have a podcast about it, if you’re interested. And since February of 2022, you can hire me as freelance software engineer for your projects. I have also founded a company - the Ctrl Shift Enter UG - with my significant other.

With the years, I have become more and more invested in leading others and communicating properly, so I have obtained certifications in Systemic Coaching (IHK) and Team Coaching (ECA) which I’m using to create happy and efficient dev teams that actually like their work and their coworkers.

Sounds interesting?
