I am a research assistant and PhD student at the Software Engineering Group at Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany. My supervisor is Prof. Dr. Kurt Schneider. I work in an actual castle and am amazed by that, again and again.
Professionally, I concern myself with interesting things such as Service-Orientation, Mashups, Requirements Engineering, and BPEL. Together with Daniel, I maintain BPELUnit, a unit testing framework and Eclipse plugin for BPEL. I do some teaching as well and find great fun in that.
I have profiles at XING and LinkedIn. Go ahead and add me as a contact if you like. For more direct means, try either Skype, ICQ or GTalk / Jabber / XMPP.
My private interests revolve around writing web applications using the Cappuccino framework and Play!, and toying with iPhone development. Naturally, I also fancy cappuccino, the coffeeish beverage.
In the rest of my spare time, I like to play a drumset, read a good book, or go out to take photos of people and things. I favor music with guitars in it.
I've developed two small applications for Mac OS X. Nomu is a menu item that provides easy access to all NeoOffice applications, documents, and templates you've used. TrafficMenu keeps track of the traffic for a network interface of your liking; also a menu item.
I maintain a small playground for my web development needs at metamethod.org. Some of it is available via my GitHub account.
You should follow me on Twitter here and add me on Facebook here. If those don't float your boat, just read my longer posts.
