I graduated from EPFL with a Bachelor in Communication Systems and from ETHZ with a Master in Information Technology.

I am currently working as a freelance frontend(/fullstack) software engineer & IT Project manager, where I practice many of my wide range of technical skills. I will finish a current mission in March 2020.
