As a passionate contributor to open source projects, I'm dedicated to giving back to the community. This is my way of saying "thank you" for the freely shared code that benefits us all.

My primary focus is on accelerating innovation, whether in the automotive industry through software-defined vehicles, enhancing knowledge creation and management, or advancing general software development.

Currently, I'm channeling my efforts into elevating JabRef to new heights, introducing groundbreaking features and innovations. This journey has led to improvements across the entire Java ecosystem. For instance, we've developed a workaround for the 64kb limit in the JDK (see our contribution here) and actively engage with projects like OpenRewrite to provide feedback and enhancements.

Beyond Java, I'm energizing the Architectural Decisions Community to foster sustainable knowledge in software architecture. For the academic and research community, I am committed to simplifying LaTeX typesetting. I maintain several LaTeX templates and packages, and I'm a principal contributor to JabRef.

Your belief in my work fuels my motivation to continue contributing and maintaining valuable open source software. Your support, whether through contributions, feedback, or sponsorship, is incredibly meaningful and appreciated.
