I'm a (Software) Engineering Manager. Also I'm a non-binary trans person and I'm femme presenting who got first names on sale during the legal name and gender change process (not completely finished yet), so I bought the family pack (actually four of them ...). I'm a bit older, but my egg cracked only two years ago. Since that time I'm out, which means I never was closeted.

I did a PhD in theoretical chemistry in another century and I have ADHD, which also was detected only two years ago. I love to hyperfocus from time to time on a topic for a while (mostly one to two weeks) and I love to infodump (talk for hours). So I'm also a conference speaker which makes all of those things other people's problem 🙃

Some of my favorite topics include: fashion theory, digital humanities, neuroscience, empathy in tech, diversity, knowledge management and transgender studies. And I've given talks on nearly each of these at conferences over the last 20 years.
