Career Profile

Although I started of with an apprenticeship as a system administrator I have always been programming during my career and have collected my fair share of experience. Up until now I have worked in small start ups (even founded my own), small companies and large enterprises and always gathered new skills on my journey.

I love open source and always try to stay on track with the newest trends.

Thanks to my system administrator background I have adopted to the DevOps movement fairly easily and regard my self as an ideal contact person between dev & ops teams.
