I was born In Austria in 1961. After studying computer science and economy I started in my first job as developer in 1980 for the Siemens AG. In 1989 I started working with the Oracle Database. I was working for the Oracle Corporation for 15 year as trainer, consultant and member of Server Technologies. I hold a US patent acquired by Oracle in the area of improving performance. Today I am working for an Oracle Platinum Partner in Vienna.
