Christian has been on a mission to automate the universe since 1998. His philosophy is simple: if a human can install it, configure it, or patch it — a script should probably do it better.

He joined the EUC-tech family in 2006 and was one of the early developers behind the legendary automation tool “NetInstall” — long before it became Ivanti DSM and long before people called everything “DevOps.”

When he’s not turning complex environments into obedient automated workflows, Christian trades CPUs for RPMs. Anything with an engine, noise, and questionable speed limits fills the same emotional space as a clean deployment log.

In short: if it runs on electrons or gasoline, he’s probably trying to make it faster — or automated.
