What people say about my work

"Due to his great Unity and iOS experience, Gero achieved impressive technical results for one of our new games. With his knowledge he also consulted different teams at InnoGames with iOS, Xcode and performance optimization specific topics."

Hendrik Klindworth

Founder & CEO at InnoGames GmbH

Gero is truly a jack of all trades. His knowledge regarding the Unity engine and iOS development is astonishing. He knows all the details and pitfalls on the one hand but has also a great overview and knows how to tackle problems in a pragmatic and enduring way. He is not only incredibly skilled, but a real nice guy as well. I know there will be a future where we will corporate again and I am looking forward to this moment.
