About me
I wrote my first programs on a 286 IBM PC AT, in the 90's (DOS 4, BASIC, ...). I enjoyed designing games, mostly text-oriented rpg, and sharing them with my friends.
After getting my Scientific Baccalaureate, I chose to pursue an engineering degree, specializing in computer science. I began as a developer and took on since many roles in the software engineering work environment.
Apart from computers, I love reading, poetry, writing and listening to music.
