About Me

A pioneer mindset

During my bachelor studies I discovered a fondness for the term 'Pioneer'. The pursuit of exploring new worlds — or in my case, creating them — is ingrained in me. The idea of a professional path steeped in routine and creative limitations was simply inconceivable. Initially, I entertained the idea of becoming a marine biologist, as nature and the undiscovered have always captivated me. However, my inclination to constantly explore new boundaries might have led me to drift into the depths of the oceans. For safety reasons, I ultimately decided to pursue my passion for the unknown in a different field.

So, why not turn a hobby into a profession?

Games have always been a passion of mine, especially the challenging and difficult ones like "Dark Souls". In the game's routine of failing and trying again I found a fascination years ago that internally drives me. This type of game forces one to think ahead about the next steps and to discover new ways to handle a situation — and if you're not careful, it rewards you with the last checkpoint.

My favourite game genre closely resembles my profession, because it reflects several aspects of being a software developer — starting with the same frustration tolerance that should be brought along. Solving coding problems and rethinking to implement new solution approaches: all of this is demanding, and that's exactly what I like.

Something else shaped me long before any game engine did: anime. Characters like Goku were the idols of my childhood — not for the spectacle, but for the pattern underneath: take the hit, train, come back stronger. That energy and stubborn endurance still define how I face challenges today.

As a tribute to a fulfilled childhood, sharing virtual adventures with friends and my passion for creation, I want to be part of a team that drives the latest development in virtual and mixed reality. I aim to create simulations and developments that will leave both you and me in awe.
