I studied Information Science at the University of Applied Sciences in Potsdam and I'm holding a degree as clerk for office communications. Sometimes I work as self-employed web designer in part-time, primarily concerned with cultural heritage organizations, publishers and non profit organizations. So far I've gathered some experience with common tasks at Libraries, IT-Service and database providers, as well as at Universities and R&D departments.
