About

I am a Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) engineer (Dipl.-Ing.), who is passionate about Cradle 2 Cradle design concepts, sustainable sanitation and the provision of public toilets in Germany. And since no one wants to talk about toilets all the time, I mainly freelance in IT consultancy, technical project management, and some other odd jobs that I like doing and which broaden my mind. Also recently took up a job in IT & media administration at a local museum which is something I really enjoy doing. I am good at repairing things and glad that my current jobs include a healthy mix of everything. Perfect for a multipotentialite like me. I am @jke on Threads & Insta, @jke.one on Bluesky.
