Hi!
I work on Systems at Substack. I’m excited about all things infra, AI and running things at scale.
I grew up in Austria, and lived in a few cities in Europe (London, Berlin, Barcelona) before finally settling in the US in 2019. I love it here!
In my free time I enjoy meditation, jhanas, lifting and painting.
