🌍 I live in London 🇬🇧 since 2016 and grew up in Berlin-Kreuzberg 🇩🇪🇹🇷. My mom is from Serbia 🇷🇸, my dad is a Swabian🇩🇪. I speak more Turkish than Serbian, which actually doesn‘t mean much 😂.

💍I am husband to a 🔬cancer scientist and 🏋️‍♀️feminist (a.k.a. The Boss) and passionate about 🌈 Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI). I turned father during my series A and took 3 months paternity leave to lead by example, while relying on a world class team.

💾 I love software development (polyglot programmer) and am a cloud native advocate. For my fellow nerds: I love Emacs and some good old Yak shaving.

📚I love reading with a 90:5:5 ratio of non-fiction to fiction (sci-fi, fantasy, history).

🏀 I play streetball, 🛹 love to skate, was a competitive breakdancer🕺🏿and freestyle rapper 🎙. I fought 10 years for the Horde 😈 (World of Warcraft) and am clean from gaming. I am a lock-down guitar player.
