About Me.

The Unconventional Path

I studied history at the University of Vienna while working in aviation operations—ground services, customer coordination, and event logistics. For years, I balanced both, which taught me to manage complexity and stay organized under pressure.

In 2021, I started teaching myself to code while still working and studying. By 2024, I'd transitioned fully into software development, now working as a software developer. I build blockchain applications and full-stack web apps. You can see a selection of my own work on my projects page.

How I Approach Building

Good technology solves real problems without creating new ones. I'm self-taught, which means I learned by building things that needed to work, not by following a curriculum. That shapes how I think about the business value the features I am coding will provide.

I worked across blockchain and traditional web development. Blockchain interests me for its approach to ownership and trust, but the technology matters less than whether the solution actually works for its users. I focus on building systems that are clear, maintainable, and purposeful.

What Matters to Me

I care about code that does what it's supposed to do and can be understood six months later. I value clarity in communication, whether that's explaining a technical decision, writing documentation that actually helps, or refactoring something that works but shouldn't.

I write about development, tools, and technical decisions on my blog. The goal is to share what I've learned and contribute to making web development more accessible and transparent.

Technical Stack

I work across the full development stack. Frontend: TypeScript, Next.js, React, and Tailwind CSS. Backend: Node.js, PostgreSQL, and RESTful APIs. Blockchain: Solidity, Hardhat, and Foundry for smart contract development and testing.

These skills come from building real projects and formal training. For credentials, check my certificates page. For applied work, browse the projects.
