About Me

I'm a passionate software engineer with over 5 years of professional experience building scalable web applications and developer tools. Currently, I work at Microsoft, where I focus on creating great developer experiences and improving developer productivity for large-scale web applications.

Over the years, I've developed expertise in modern web technologies, with a particular focus on TypeScript, Angular, Nx and Node.js. I'm also deeply interested in Developer Experience (DX), DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) - which is becoming increasingly important in my day-to-day work.

When I'm not coding, you can find me experimenting with new cooking techniques (especially perfecting the art of steak cooking), reading technical books, or exploring the latest trends in software architecture. I believe in continuous learning and sharing knowledge with the developer community.

Despite my young age of 24, I am already married and have two wonderful children that keep me motivated and inspired every day (and busy!). I live in a small Austrian town called Alkoven, which has the best Asparagus you can find, and am living a quietm and comfortable life with my family.

Beyond coding, I'm passionate about the art and science of cooking the perfect steak. From experimenting with different cuts and techniques to perfecting the ideal sear, I document my culinary journey with detailed photos and notes.

Sharing is Caring - Steak Plate for two

It was a draining day and my wife and I had to do something good to us. The selection of multiple cuts was really interesting to have direct comparisons.

After months of experimenting, I finally achieved what I consider the perfect rump steak doing a dry brine and hot pan sear.
