Half Computer Geek, half Extreme Sports Addict. I love to travel and being outdoors, but I also spend quite some time in front of a computer - either hacking code or exploring new technologies. And even though most people don't understand how someone can waste so much time starring into a screen I actually do enjoy it a lot.

Professional

I hold a BSc in Communication Engineering as well as a MEng in Electrical Engineering and spent some time studying psychology, when I was living in San Francisco. While being a student in Germany I worked as a freelancer developing microcomputer systems. Later on I spent a year in California building self-driving robot cars at Stanford University and Volkswagen Research. Currently I'm living in Barcelona, where I joined a start-up working on mobile applications (iPhone and Google Android) and new generation search.

Personal

As you might have noticed I like to travel a lot. I've been in most places of Western Europe, lived a year in San Francisco followed by a summer of kitesurfing in Maui (Hawaii). I've been traveling in Africa and through South America, Mexico, the United States and Canada. Last year I was living in Edinburgh, Scotland and I just moved to Spain this summer. Besides that, I try to get as much outdoor time as possible. Mountains or oceans? Doesn't matter - I love both. And most important: having many great friends to share these unforgettable moments.
