      I am a <strong>Product-oriented Software Developer</strong> and tech
      enthusiast with over a decade of experience (Python, Ruby, Javascript). I
      like building things people can use and making a positive impact on their
      lives.
    </p>
    <p>
      I am currently based in Berlin, Germany, working remotely in the EU area.
      I am interested in EdTech, CleanTech, HealthTech, FoodTech, Open Source
      Software, and <strong>shipping things that matter</strong>.

    <p>
      I enjoy <strong>bouldering and climbing</strong>, which helps me get a
      fresh perspective on things whenever I feel stuck. I spend a lot of time
      with my dogs in nature and I love teaching them tricks.
    </p>
    <p>
      Both activities, climbing and <strong>dog training</strong>, involve a lot
      of problem-solving and finding creative solutions, which relate in many
      ways to coding. Additionally, I enjoy spending time in the kitchen, trying
      out new recipes and <strong>baking</strong>.
