InDepth

Many years are passed and I gained beside of my “main” life a lot of knowledge about software development in many fields. I gained the most of my knowledge because of interest and self education.

On this page I will give you an overview about my life achievements and what I have done so far. For most of the projects there is no source or docs left over. So this will be a chronological timeline where you can basically see when I did something.

Before you start with this list I want to say: I meet my wonderful wife late 2005 after I moved to Dresden / Germany. Since then we go together down the road and she supports me and my work like crazy. Exact 10 years later, at the 26.02.2016, we got finally married. My first child was born on 06.06.2014. My second was born on 16.08.2016.

I also drive a lot with my bicycle. Like… crazy. I drive nearly every reachable distance with it. No matter if it is 3Km or 70Km.

This is basically because people ask me sometimes if I have a “normal” life. Because I did so much stuff in the past that mostly no one believes me until they work with me.
