I'm running an independent software development company called Screen Island, driven by one core belief: Simplicity is key.
With 20 years of Ruby on Rails experience in my toolbelt, I've spent the last two decades building maintainable, scalable web applications.
In a world where software complexity can be overwhelming, we're here to guide clients toward more approachable and efficient solutions. Our mission is to empower customers and users to achieve greater results with less effort — through sustainable, maintainable software and frameworks.
We provide a powerful Email API service called Sunnybox.
It's a fully hosted solution for handling email accounts: fetch, send, and analyze emails through a single, robust API. Perfect for developers who want easy, reliable email processing without the hassle of IMAP/MIME complexity.
We built the first AI-native Event Ticketing Platform called Usetix.
It's a complete hosted service that lets you create a professional ticketing webshop, sell digital tickets (with full Apple Wallet & Google Wallet support), handle admissions via QR codes, and enjoy a built-in AI assistant that helps with event setup, descriptions, queries, and more — in both German and English. Designed for busy organizers who want simple, GDPR-compliant event management with transparent €1-per-ticket pricing, no lock-in, and real-time analytics.
I firmly believe in the power of open-source software — not just using great tools, but giving back to the community. I maintain a strong discipline of contributing: whenever I spot a bug to fix or an enhancement worth making, I open a pull request. It helps everyone and sharpens my skills across diverse codebases.
