About me

I am a consultant and full-stack software crafter at AE, helping companies develop well-crafted software solutions, mainly with .NET and TypeScript.

Public speaking

I am very passionate about knowledge sharing. As a public speaker, I share my passion for software craftsmanship with developers who want to sharpen their skills, write high-quality code, and take pride in their work. I present at international conferences and meetups. At AE, I am often involved with organizing events and meetups in the knowledge sharing space, both for internal employees and for young graduates.

Values

During my experiences, I was often described as an enthusiastic, spontaneous and social person, that values open communication and humor. My inquisitiveness and eagerness to learn often lead to fruitful discussions within the team, as I like to continuously improve.

I believe great software is built by collaborative teams where quality, testing, and continuous improvement are part of the culture. User feedback is important to me, as it helps to iterate quickly and really deliver tangible value to the client ánd their customers.
