What I’m up to These Days

I live in Cologne, Germany, with my wonderful wife. I am happy.

Last year I quit my job to establish myself as a freelance software engineer for non-goverment/non-profit organizations. This was huge for me, and so far it is going great. On the side, I am finishing another master’s degree in applied computer science at Fernuni Hagen (distance university).

I finished a 5K race, a 10K race, and a relay marathon with 12K! I am running three times per week in preparation for a half marathon next year. This is part of a greater initiative of becoming/being a healthy person.

I would like to do more creative (coding) work and get into the space of serious games and museum apps.
