Its hard to believe that it's already been more than one month since my last day at THREAKS - and that I have not yet shared anything since then on here 🤯
I took the entirety of May just for myself, to wind down and clear my mind. It has been a good time so far, with a mixture of working on some personal hobby projects 🎨🖌, playing through some of my video game backlog 🎮 and starting to reflect on the last months of work and what we achieved with THREAKS.
At this point, I feel like I owe a round of thanks to a lot of people - my former team and good friends from THREAKS 🦆 (yes, every single one of you, y'all are fantastic!), our various partners and clients 🤝, all the great people met at conferences/mixers/parties 🛫 and of course everybody that reached out, offered their help and has been so supportive during these difficult past months🫂. I still didn't manage to properly reply to everyone - which I am very sorry for - but your messages and kindness means everything!
I sincerely wish I could name everyone mentioned above but it is simply too many people. Instead I want to extend a special thank you to both my partners in crime during the past couple years, Sebastian Bulas and Manny Hachey. You guys have been the best partners I could have wished for and I genuinely learned so much from you. Without you, I would be nowhere near where I am now. You gave me a chance to prove myself and took the risk to catapult me from a mere junior developer to become the CTO of your company and for that crazy decision I will be eternally grateful. It certainly played a great role in my professional development and career but I am convinced it also helped me become a better person. Thanks to you, I went through more growth than I could have ever possibly imagined and that is an opportunity worth more than anything. Thank you guys for believing in me! ❤️
I am lucky enough to already know how my journey continues and I can't wait to talk about it and share more info in the future. I will enjoy the rest of June with some (hopefully 🤞) sunny weather in Hamburg, have a trip to Canada lined up and keep chipping away at my video game backlog before I'll go plunge into my new adventure in July.
Unfortunately, not everyone is as lucky as I am and we still have some talent up for grabs - if you are hiring and looking for staff, please feel free to reach out to me! I can vouch for every single one of my former team members - they were simply the best 😍💪
