I am Alex, almost 40, married, have two amazing daughters and a dog called rakete (rocket). My software programming experiance started all the way back in 86 on my C128. Later I went on to a 386 and a 486. In 2000 i started my apprenticeship to become a software engineer, where I found a third of my calling: complex systems. Soon after my apprenticeship I was appointed the lead of the Team - during the next 17 years followed a lot challenging but exciting time in some of the major platforms in Germany. I have let over 500 people, been to the cloud, introduced agile, had to let people go (an experience i do not like to repeat) and made a lot experiments! I am sooo thankful of all that happened and the possibility to learn.
After 10 years of struggle with command & control environments, i founded my own company, where we help other nerds like myself to succeed.
My glass is mostly half-full, through this it is more simple to master the occasional quests life has to offer, I am in the pursuit of happiness, course it cannot be brought with money nor forced by power. First I seek to understand then to be understood, not just to spread my autobiography, I try to lead myself by values not emotions.
Cheers from Cologne, Germany
