About

I'm a Google Developer Expert based in Munich, focused on web performance and applied AI. I run AI-coding workshops across Europe — Career Launchpad is the one I built for IT students taking their first real steps into shipping AI-powered software.

Day to day I work at Baqend, where I lead customer success around Speed Kit — our product that accelerates real e-commerce sites in production. That work pulls me into a lot of conversations about what actually makes web apps fast (and what doesn't), which feeds back into the GDE talks and workshops.

What I work on

Production web performance with Speed Kit, agentic coding workflows (Antigravity, Gemini CLI, Superpowers, MCP), and the practical end of LLMs — how to ground them, how to spec for them, how to ship them. Most of my public talks live at the intersection of those three.

Why this workshop

Three years ago, building and deploying an AI-powered website in three hours wasn't possible for a student in any room. Today it is — but the skill that matters has shifted from "writing the code" to steering the AI: speccing well, picking the right tool, knowing when to trust an agent. This workshop is built around that shift. By the time you leave the room you'll have shipped a real product on the same stack professional teams use, and you'll have a feel for the workflow that produced it.

Stay in touch

The links above are the easiest paths. Workshops are more useful when the conversation continues after the room empties — drop a note, share what you built, ask follow-up questions.

Accessibility & recordings

If you need captions, a recording, slides in advance, a quieter break-out space, or any other adjustment — please email me before the event and I will sort it. Most asks are easy when I know about them in advance; nothing is dumb to ask. Captions are on by default for the virtual edition; for onsite, slide PDFs and the full guide are available before, during, and after the room.
