About Nikolai

I am an actor, developer, and author — an unusual combination that gives me a real advantage.

Since 2008, I have been performing on stages such as the Theater Wolfsburg, the Burgfestspiele Bad Vilbel, and the Staatsoper Berlin. This experience shapes my approach to language, presence, and communication — qualities that I pass on as a speech trainer at TU Braunschweig and in corporate seminars (e.g., Mercedes Benz, Graft, Bayer).

As a Software Developer, I develop projects ranging from embedded hardware (including Arduino, ESP32, ATtiny) to desktop and AI applications. My work has been partially available in the Heise-Shop and published in Make Magazine (Heise Medien), including series of articles on hardware projects like Schimpfolino and Nokolino, VS Code Extensions, and LibreOffice extensions with AI integration.

As a tech author with a social science background, I write understandably about complex topics — for makers, developers, and tech-savvy readers.
