👋 Hi there, I am a full-stack software consultant from Germany, living and working in Oslo, Norway. I am specialized on the Java platform, but I do generally enjoy any kind of programming. I am fairly active in developing open source software and I believe in writing clean, modular code. I am sometimes blogging about technology. I also enjoy speaking at [conferences and user group meetings]((https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJZg_b40WSWxixd7J57zPQRky9ReSRbCV) and was pronounced a Java One Rockstar. I am the author of Byte Buddy, a runtime code generator for the Java virtual machine and won a Duke's Choice award and a Groundbreaker award for my efforts. I also created documents4j, a document format converter for Java. For my contributions to the ecosystem, I was elected a Java Champion. Get in touch if you want to talk with me about something that you think that I could help you with.
