About me

Self-made. Builder. Bremener.

I left school after 9th grade and built my first website in 2001 — no degree, no course. Just started. Since then I've launched over 20 web projects, completed two IT apprenticeships, and learn something new every day.

I live in Bremen-Blumenthal together with my wife Jenna. We've been together since 13.03.2009 and got married on 02.02.2022. What drives me: trying new things, building stuff myself, and bringing digital ideas to life — whether website, bot, automation, or music.

Creativity & Interests

More than just code

DJ-Frankus

I produce my own music as DJ-Frankus — mainly Rap, Hardstyle, and Techno. Music is passion, not business.

E-Commerce

Active on eBay and Etsy. I import goods from wholesale markets so private individuals without a business license can access bulk deals. Offers on hb3d.de and bc24.org.

Automation

I build automations with n8n and program Telegram bots — e.g. bots that promote products from hb3d.de, send good-morning messages, or respect quiet hours.

Claude Code & AI

Since discovering Claude Code, I'm totally hooked. AI-assisted development changes everything — I use it daily for projects, automations, and code.

Frequently Asked Questions

I simply started in 2001 — no degree, no course. Curiosity was the only driver. Later I completed two official IT apprenticeships, but the foundational knowledge all came through self-study.

Yes — I plan and build all websites, bots, automations, and projects myself. No team, no office. Just me, a computer, and Claude Code as AI support.

Just write to me via the contact form on this page. Choose “Partner inquiry” as the subject and briefly describe how you envision a collaboration. I’ll get back to you.

Yes! Through my agency Panzer IT I offer professional web development — WordPress sites, custom solutions, maintenance and support. More info at panzerit.de.

Claude Code is an AI assistant from Anthropic that runs directly in the terminal and helps with programming. It can write code, find bugs, edit files, and complete complex tasks — almost like a second developer. Since using it, my productivity has multiplied.
