About me

I'm 28 years old and living in Germany. In December 2022, I will finish my Master's degree in Software Engineering. During my studies I focused on Software Architecture, and selected topics in Cloud Computing such as Loose Coupling and Message-based Integration. I have sufficient practical knowledge in web development that mostly involve frontend development. I feel most comfortable in working with React.js as I have already finished multiple projects using that framework. However, I am also interested in diving into other frameworks as well.

I am looking forward to collaborate and work with other like-minded people to solve complex business problems. If you are interested, feel free to contact me on any platform you like. :-) Cheers!
