About me
As a blind software developer, I know first-hand how important it is to make digital products accessible to all people. What is a theoretical requirement for many is my lived reality — every day.
For over seven years, I have been developing backend solutions, primarily with PHP, Symfony, and Laravel. Starting in e-commerce, I now support digital processes at RSU GmbH from concept to implementation.
Accessibility is not an add-on for me, but the foundation of good development. I actively bring this perspective into teams and projects.
