I know that good Software means good Business

Hi everybody! My name is Marco and I'm a relatively new when it comes to coding. I am currently studying Computer Science at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences. I was born and raised in Zurich and was fortunate enough to get into computers at a very young age. After being in the field of Systems Engineering for some time, I am now working as a Software Engineer. Privately I am a big fan of all things Space and Esports. I hope you enjoy your time on my webpage.

Regards,
