About

I am a resourceful and hands-on Mechatronics Engineer with over 10 years of experience in automotive system validation, fault analysis, and technical project development. I enjoy working as part of a team, sharing knowledge, and solving problems together, but I'm just as comfortable taking responsibility and working independently. I am genuinely interested in the inner workings of technical systems and always looking to learn more and grow my skillset.
