I began working as a software developer in 2015 during my Bachelor's degree, where I created computer models of physical processes. Since then, I have been passionate about software development, consistently enhancing my skills and knowledge in this field. For my master’s degree graduation, I developed a program to the stage of a ready-to-use product. This achievement motivated me to pursue a career as a professional developer.

For last seven years, I've worked as a full-stack developer. During this time, I've had the opportunity to work on both large projects and small startups, refactoring legacy projects, and pioneering new frameworks and methodologies. I contribute to the open-source community, actively study and research development issues, and assist people in finding answers on StackOverflow, maintain flatpack and snap packages, write articles.

Leonie is studying geoinformatics and is a working student at esri Germany. She is writing her master's thesis on spatial knowledge graphs and is a big data nerd.
