We started this blog with Tamás in 2014 to create a space where we can share our thoughts on tech.

For me, blogging always has been a fun way of learning. It allows me to focus on specific topics that I am interested in, and if an article sparks discussion online it's a very valuable opportunity to learn about new ideas and different opinions.

In the previous years, I've worked on a bunch of projects and wore various hats along the way. I'm a fan of open source, test automation, DevOps and Java. Currently I work in the Delivery Engineering team at Adnovum to ensure that our projects have the best tools to ship quality software.
