Hi, I'm Elmar.

I write code and advocate for an open web.

I speak at conferences

Over the past few years, I got to speak at several international web-development conferences. You can watch something on Micro-Frontends at the JSUnconf 2018 here.

I work at MessageBird

At MessageBird, we believe that communication and messaging can be better. Why not enable customers to communicate with a company just like they do with their friends? As a lead front-end developer, I mentor peers, review code and work out technical solutions. Currently I'm part of the DesignOps Team where we try to bridge the design with the engineering world.

I take photos

I love to travel around and explore the world with my camera (Sony α7 III) or my drone (DJI Mavic Pro). My genres are travel-, street- and nature photography. A collection of my work is published on my photo portfolio.
