About Me

I am a swiss software engineer located near Zurich. I did an apprenticeship at Comerge AG, where I had the opportunity to work in various projects and get an insight of various technologies. In 2021, I completed my apprenticeship with distinction.
Driven by my deep interest in the field, I went on to pursue a bachelor's degree in computer science at OST Eastern University of Applied Sciences (formerly known as HSR). Having successfully completed my studies in 2025, I am eager to tackle new challenges and put my skills and knowledge to practical use.
