About Me

With over 15 years of experience in mobile development and IT consulting, I have established myself as a trusted expert in the intersection of technology and business. Currently serving as IT Business Analyst at ING Belgium, I bring deep expertise in iOS development, digital identity (EUDI/eIDAS2), and blockchain technology.

My journey spans from developing the German government's CovPass app at IBM to leading mobile teams at Telefonica Germany, and consulting for industry leaders like Accenture, Daimler, and Deutsche Telekom. I hold a Master of Science from FOM Hochschule and am passionate about the future of digital banking, tokenization, and European digital identity.
