SAP consultant at koenig.solutions — ABAP, S/4HANA transformation and SAP IS-U. I still care about maps as much as interfaces: GIS, 3D geovisualization and data stories that actually load in under a second.

I’m a software engineer by training, with a bachelor’s and master’s in software engineering, and a strong instinct for visual design. I’ve worked across GIS, AI, web development, frontend architecture and SAP consulting, always drawn to the point where data meets pixels. Today I work as an SAP consultant at koenig.solutions, focusing on ABAP development, S/4HANA transformation and SAP IS-U. Before that, I worked on frontend architecture for the Insight Control platform at SPIE RODIAS. Earlier, I was a tutor and educator at AISLab, where I helped others learn web development and related technologies. And I still keep a running list of maps that deserve to be three-dimensional.
