## about me.

I am a 24 year old computer science student at the Technical University of Vienna, Austria.

I got a passion for embedded systems, bare-bones and low-level system programming, compiler 
engineering and anything of that sort.  
From time to time I also like to get into reverse-engineering some stuff.
Currently focusing primarily on x86(_64) and RISC-V.  
Rust is my language of choice. Efficient in C/C++ as well.

As balance between all that I love getting caught up in devops and infrastructure management 
and generally anything involving networks.

## my work.

Currently I'm part-time employed at 
{{< extlink href="https://proxmox.com/" title="Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH" >}}
  Proxmox
{{< /extlink >}} as software engineer.

Some useful projects I work on and maintain in my free time include:
