Software Engineer and amateur blogger
Professionally, I am a full-stack developer of complex and cloud-native applications, with a strong focus on backend engineering. I am currently working in an IT-Consulting firm focused on telecommunication and networks.
I love spending evenings and weekends learning something new. Topics that have recently spiked my interest include AGI, chaos theory, epistemology, and language-oriented programming.
Check out the section below for my technical projects , my blog to get a sneak-peek into my thoughts, and the contact section provides even more links to explore.

Sorting algorithms are fascinating, and watching them work even more so.
I made a fancy one in JavaScript, and a less visual in Go.
I am currently learning about highly available, scalable, resilient and distributed applications using Go.
RabbitMQ is essential for scalable microservices as it enables efficient communication, decoupling of services, and fault-tolerant architectures. That is why I did a deep dive into it, and obtained a RabbitMQ certificate.
For this I am also reading Designing Data-Intensive Applications, which is a fantastic book.
Programming languages are fascinating tools that allow us to turn ideas into reality. To understand them better, I decided to built my own and explain the concept in a beginner friendly way.
Coming SoonI am constantly trying to learn something new. For this I am solving coding challenges, learning about threads in Python and building smaller projects to learn something new.

Co-op study program with ERGO, in which I alternated between three-month-long periods of theory at university and work at a company.
I strongly believe in the importance of writing. In fact, I have even written a dedicated essay on its importance. While I wouldn't consider myself a great writer, I am proud of the content that I have produced on my blog.
Check out my writingI have been fascinated by machine learning for a long time. Unfortunately, my bachelor degree was less technical than I initially thought that it would be and therefore I had barely the technical background to dive into ML. I still decided to write my bachelor thesis on an email classifier, which achieved a 66% successrate. This might not sound like a lot, but considering that I had to teach myself everything within a short time span and that I worked with production data from my company, which is often more complex and messy compared to academic datasets, I was still proud of the result.
I really love reading. I my journey began with self-improvement books, but eventually I transitioned into popular science, philosophy and a wide range of non-fiction genres.
