Hey there, My name is Manuel. I was born in Austria, Vienna where I enjoyed a delightful upbringing. I went to Middle School with focus on Informatics and thanks to my dad and his friends I quickly became interested in the IT world even at a young age. I always tried to stay on the ball to keep learning more and because innovation in technology is never waiting for anyone there really is no other choice. Life did not go as planned so I was a bit side-tracked between 2010-2015 where I mostly got stuck figuring things out, however I'm back at it! Just finished a bootcamp at the Talent Garden Innovation school for UX-Design and it was intensive, I learned a lot and I know It was totally worth all the stress. Up until now, I was working in the IT sector mostly as a freelancer but I felt my problem-solving nature could be better suited in a different field. I stumbled across UX and the Talent Garden Bootcamp, immediately falling in love with the idea of becoming a UX-Designer. In the future, I’d like to work in the game development sector. I operate my own Linux Server where I constantly learn more about Server Administrating. I Love working with Figma, and I plan on improving my visual designing, My Problem-Solving nature and stubbornness when it comes to solving issues helps greatly to acquire said skills. I enjoy feedback that I take and give, If I don't agree with someone I either get a second opinion or try to empathize with their point of view.
