Hello World
I am Marius, an aspiring software engineer from Hamburg in northern Germany. Currenty, I am studying CS at the University of Hamburg. Hit me up by sending me an E-Mail, take a look at my CV or simply continue exploring.
- Browse my open-source work on GitHub, GitLab or visit me on LinkedIn.
- I like photography and experimenting with Kubernetes. Take a look at some pictures I took on my self-hosted Immich running on my k8s Cluster.
- This page is being served to you by an arm64 Hetzner VPS running the NixOS Linux distribution (view status). Feel free to explore the server's configuration files and maybe find a vulnerability. I hope not
