I'm a 22-year-old IT specialist from Salzburg, Austria, currently working as a Solutions Engineer at eurofunk Kappacher GmbH — a company that builds mission-critical communication infrastructure. I care about understanding how systems work — not just using tools, but knowing what's happening underneath.

My background combines Computer Science with Business & Technical Mathematics from HTL Hallein. This unusual combination means I can automate a firewall deployment and redesign a production cost calculation model for a steel company (which I did for my diploma thesis).

I learn best by building real things with real stakes. The internal automation tools I've built are used daily by 40+ colleagues. That feedback loop — ship, watch it run, improve it — is how I grow fastest.
