Summary

I am a very experienced, multilingual ICT system engineer and have, with great fascination, repeatedly mastered a broad spectrum of ICT tasks successfully—typically in the Microsoft and application environments. I’d also like to mention that I really enjoy working in a team and am known as a solution-oriented, creative practitioner and hands-on doer. Since I’m very interested in new technical developments, I often teach myself new things—and whenever possible, I like to try them out immediately.
