my journey so far
The hobby that turned into a career.
I started programming at age 12, building websites to share ROM games with fellow enthusiasts.
What began as curiosity quickly evolved into a passion for creating things from scratch — and soon, an early profession.
By the age of 15, I had launched two websites with hundreds of daily visitors and transitioned from HTML to Java, developing browser-based games.
That evolved into mobile game development with J2ME just as color screen phones were emerging, leading to commercial deals before I entered university.
Though I was already a self-taught and commercially active developer, I chose to pursue a degree in Aeronautical Engineering — not to leave software behind, but to expand my knowledge across disciplines I was passionate about, such as aerospace and systems engineering.
While in university, I joined CSP-Mobile, a German game company, working remotely on mobile games — both adapting titles for various devices and designing new games from scratch.
That was in 2003, long before remote work was mainstream.
After graduating, I made a deliberate decision to continue in software development, as it allowed me greater creative freedom and a faster path to innovation than the roles typically available in traditional aerospace at the time.
Over the years, I’ve built a career as an independent software developer and consultant, often working across disciplines.
I enjoy applying my skills to complex and meaningful problems — from transport and infrastructure to safety-critical systems and aeronautics — always driven by the challenge of creating something new.
I'm always open to new opportunities where software, engineering, and innovation intersect.
