About me

I am Katharina, originally from Germany, now living with Marvin and our children just outside of BorĂ¥s in Sweden. I graduated in 2014 from the University of Duisburg-Essen with a Master of Science in Structural Engineering and have been working as a Software Engineer since then. I started out developing structural engineering analysis applications (think: how big does this cantilever wall have to be given those environmental parameters). I also helped develop an application showing tunnel machine conductors the right way. I have since then moved on to the web and the cloud. I currently work for factor10 as a Principal Software Architect and consultant.
