Bio
Born in Thessaloniki, in 1997, I was always keen on the study of the natural world as well as computers and programming, I studied Geology at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and spent my research years turning UAV point clouds into rockfall hazard assessments.
Since 2019 I have been building geospatial software: Spatial Data Infrastructures, data pipelines, QGIS plugins and web platforms. Today I am a full-stack software engineer at Geospatial Enabling Technologies. FOSS advocate, and I love making maps, and sailing.
