About me


I discovered my passion for programming at the age of 12 and have been continuously developing my skills ever since. Right after graduating from high school, I started working as a software developer. During my computer science studies, I became deeply interested in IT security and spent a lot of time solving challenges on HackTheBox. After completing my studies, I took on the role of IT Security Practice Lead, where I built up a dedicated security division. Later, I transitioned into a more technical role as a penetration tester, focusing on identifying and securing vulnerabilities in various systems. Beyond the digital world, I have a strong interest in natural sciences and enjoy rural life as a balance to my tech-driven work. A few years ago I started horse-riding again and now I spend most of my free time with my own horse.
