A few words about me

Hi, I'm Christian Bachmann. At present I am studying for a degree in Architecture at Leipzig University of Applied Science, Germany. My course has given me a basic grounding in the main disciplinary areas of architecture. In particular, I have been able to attend a range of complementary course units in the broad area of urban development. My skills have been further developed through my part-time job as computer scientist and my leisure activities. I am also a keen snowboarder and mountainbiker. This helps me to get a clear mind to accomplish new tasks.
