About

A little about me and what I do 🙂

I live in Innsbruck, Austria, a place I feel very fortunate to call home, which also shapes much of how I spend my time—both professionally and in my free time.

In my professional life, I worked as a researcher at the Department of Computer Science at the University of Innsbruck. After completing my PhD and spending some time as a postdoc, I transitioned from academia to industry and joined Evaluation Software Development (ESD). Today, I work there as a Lead Developer. Our software product, Computer-based Health Evaluation Systems (CHES), is used in quality of life research, routine clinical practice, and rehabilitation settings, helping patients express their health not only through clinical metrics but also through their own perception of well-being.

In my free time, sports have always played a major role in my life—especially flag football, which is a variant of American football, but also gym training, tennis, squash, and more. I played flag football for the USI Avalanches in Innsbruck, competing on all levels of Flag Liga Austria. I’m also a longtime fan of the New Orleans Saints—Who Dat!

My family is at the center of my life. I deeply enjoy spending time with my wife Stefanie and our son, and we try to make the most of our time together—especially outdoors, whether hiking in the mountains, climbing, or simply being active together. Traveling is also something we love sharing as a family, and discovering new places together is something we truly value.
