Career

"It's good to have an end to journey toward but it is the journey that matters in the end."

by Ernest Hemingway

I was born in Klagenfurt, Carinthia (1983). At the begin of my professional journey my competences were based in technical disciplines as software engineering, network technologies and database modeling. Later on, I my focus switched to more human-centered themes as design thinking, usablity engineering, customer exerience design and agile frameworks.

In my profesional career I realized that the introduction of technology in organizations result in various social and organizational challenges. My latest education and experience were in the fields of innovation and product management as well as IT project management and product ownership. The economic mindset came basically from my startup experience as well as theoretical knowledge that I acquired in my studies.
