<h2>Who am I?</h2>
<p>
Currently an engineer at Marvell Semiconductor. Always curious about technological innovations and therefore graduated in electrical engineering & computer science. Strives for a complete understanding of computers, from the lowest level—i.e., the bare integrated circuits—to the highest—i.e., user space—, and is therefore always eager to learn something new. Enjoys writing small programs in his free time, either to automate everyday problems, or simply for the sake of fun, and gets excited by the seemingly endless possibilities of Linux. Loves a good read, also on non-tech subjects like economics, anthropology, or (geo)politics.
