About me

Hello!

My name is Tom-Steve Watzke. I developed a love to computer science at an early age. My career is as clear and self-explanatory as my code: high school diploma, studies in computer science and then a master in "Discrete and Computational Mathematics". During this time, I have been working since 2007 and am now a Senior Web Engineer specializing in full stack web and mobile app engineering.

Since I immersed myself in the Linux world around 2004, dark mode has been my favorite, that's why my site looks the same. Gentoo Linux was the first and is what I still use and contribute to. I like clear structures and designs as well as clean and self-explanatory code.
