I was born on February 20th, 2001, in Lulea, Sweden, but my parents moved to Germany shortly after. Therefore I grew up in Aachen and Cologne. My multicultural background, with a Lithuanian mother and Korean father, provided me not only with insights into different cultures but also provided the unique opportunity to learn and speak four languages: German, English, Lithuanian, and Korean.

I have always been passionate about sports, and my childhood was filled with many opportunities to be active. I was a middle-distance runner in school, and also had the honor to play for the youth national football team in Lithuania. Later on, during my Bachelor's degree, I discovered my love for programming. I especially enjoy the problem-solving aspect of it and the challenge of writing complex yet clean software. Aside from my professional pursuits, I also enjoy listening to music and playing the piano in my free time and I also love to travel and experience different cultures from around the world.
