A computer scientist with a hunger for knowledge who likes taking on challenges. Likes solving problems, especially related to architecture, algorithms, programming, embedded, language translation etc. Likes attending and presenting at conferences.

My objective is to work with brilliant people where I can utilize my skills and learn a lot while working on fascinating products were quality matters more than easy money. Where one can always afford to invest in innovation, creativity and high quality even if there is no quick profit, because doing otherwise does not fit the business plan and producing good products pays off in the end.

Just watched the Forks Over Knives movie. Considering going vegan. What do you think?
