I like working with data to help people solve problems. Although I am comfortable with the "harder" aspects of data engineering and data science, I firmly believe that tech shouldn't be self-serving. What I like doing best is connecting with people, sharing knowledge, and discovering how data can help improve life and work.
I have an educational background in business informatics and hands-on experience as a data engineer and analyst. I also worked as a developer advocate for an MLOps startup.
Friends and colleagues describe me as ambitious, decisive, and result-oriented. The question I like to ask most is "Why?" and the answer I would rather not hear is "Because we have always done it this way."
The thing I value most in my work is ownership. I love being able to point at something and say: "I made that." My dream job is one where I can combine deep technical work with a more people-focused role.
I currently work as a data platform engineer under the trade name binary3. Together with the great team at Wolk, I am designing and implementing a data platform for ELEO.
Outside work, I keep busy with photography, learning Spanish, and climbing. I aim to get my lead-climbing certificate next year, although I'll need to improve my climbing skills first. My partner and I also just adopted an adorable puppy.

Outside of work I love trekking through nature and sleeping in a tent. When not travelling, I really enjoy organising stuff. Perhaps you might know me from one of the events I have organised in the past:
