I am deeply involved in Free and Open Source Software from various perspectives — strategic, technical, legal, community, and even political. In my work, I apply this expertise at Deutsche Bahn in DB Systel's CTO Team. Before this, I was Senior Program Manager at the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE). I am a political and administrative science graduate, and founded a [small company for web services]({{< ref "it" >}}). As a self-taught software developer I maintain several Open Source projects. In my little free time, I love being with my family, doing sports, and playing and listening to music. Once in a while [I blog]({{< ref "blog" >}}) about things that keep me busy. You can contact me via email, messenger, or any of the platforms listed below.\ See the [contact page]({{< ref "contact" >}}) for more details.
