Welcome to my site

Hi! My name is Daniel and you’ve landed on my personal website. I currently work as a Technical Program Manager at Microsoft and I’m based in Vancouver, Canada.

In my job I develop key technical adoption programs for Microsoft’s software development offerings like Azure DevOps and GitHub.

Throughout my career I have focused
on software development in one way or another.

I started my journey as a software engineer, but also spent time in various customer-facing roles and product management.

My mission along the way has been to
help teams build better software and deliver it at a faster pace.

I love learning new things and broadening my technical skills.
This is part of the reason why I keep a website going.
The site offers access to my resume and relevant contact information.

When I get some time away from my screen I enjoy going out into nature. I aim to do some for of exercise every day.

While British Columbia is a beautiful place to live, I also like travelling and putting together itineraries for future trips. I get itchy feet when I don’t have a trip booked, and always look forward to the next one.

I’ve lived in Canada since 2021. I spent just under 10 years in the United Kingdom before that. The UK is where I went to university. My bachelor’s degree is in “Creative Computing” from Goldsmiths College in London.

I’m originally from Austria and have also spent a short period of time living and working in France, which means that I speak both German and French as well as English.

I’m very interested in languages in general.

One that I’d like to learn in future is Spanish.
