Summary

For my work in both business and system design, it's not crucial to master the details of databases, operating systems or programming languages. Still, my many years of experience working with these technologies as a developer form the foundation for my work. They speed up any design and make communication easier with both the business side and the IT teams.

I prefer to work at the interface between business units and IT. When collaboration here runs smoothly, systems emerge that effectively support business processes.

In doing so, I have gained extensive experience in both traditional and agile development methodologies (Scrum).
