  • I'm a member of Toastmasters International, in the Karlsruhe Toastmasters club. I have reached the Competent Communicator (CC) level and am now working towards Advanced Communicator Bronze (ACB) and Competent Leader (CL). I'm also currently serving as Vice President of Education at my club.

  • Project Usus is an Open Source project that some of my colleagues at andrena and I have started. We implement Eclipse Plug-Ins to support common coding practices.
