About me

I started building websites in my teens. Wanting to create a homepage for my band provided the initial spark, and after my dad, who worked as a graphic designer at the time, introduced me to the basics of HTML and CSS, I was hooked. After graduating from high school, I started my first little side business as a web developer. Nonetheless, at the time, I was unsure whether I actually wanted to pursue a career in the tech industry.

Eventually, I decided to go to university and study political and social science. I hold a B.A. in European Studies from Maastricht University as well as an M.A. in Peace and Conflict Studies from Goethe University Frankfurt and Technical University of Darmstadt. During my studies, I worked as a web developer on the side. Gradually, I realized that I enjoyed coding and realizing web projects much more than researching the peculiarities of international politics. Thus, the decision to focus exclusively on web development was made.

In the following years, I worked for and with several web agencies, building a plethora of websites and gaining valuable hands-on experience. At some point, however, I realized that I was getting somewhat stuck: most of the projects I realized were built using WordPress and PHP. Curious about terms such as Headless or Jamstack, I embarked on a journey that resulted in a growing fascination with frameworks such as Vue, Nuxt, Astro, and, of course, the Storyblok Headless CMS.

Fittingly, the opportunity to join Storyblok as a Developer Relations Engineer arose. Here, I work in a completely remote, multicultural, and international team and could honestly not be happier. Nowadays, I coordinate and manage Storyblok's technical documentation, combining my technical expertise with my passion for writing and communication.

Away from the keyboard, I dearly love playing guitar, strength training, and spending time in nature.
