About

This is me then. I’m a start-up founder and freelance consultant. Photographer, music lover, motorcycle fanatic, vivid reader and lifter of heavy things. Specialization is for insects.

This is one of my creative outlets. I read a lot and it seems to spawn a need to write as well. At one point I wanted to use this website to promote my work as an IT consultant, but over time it has morphed more towards something as undefinable as a creative outlet. I write, share and post the things I want and care about. This can be photography, motorcycles, books or whatever. I just have an urge to make some content no matter the audience or end goal.

I also have another website just to make things more complicated for myself jmreiche.github.io - there is even duplicated content. Originally the blog you are reading now was hosted on Wordpress and the github.io blog was my first endeavour into static websites. I grew so fond of the experience of writing markdown, checking in changes and publishing content as it reminded me of my developer career and was a workflow I was used to. I never really liked the online editor of Wordpress. Hence I decided to move this page to a static setup as well. Now it is powered by Hugo and hosted on Cloudflare pages and can give the same experience as my static github page. For now I have not really found a meaningful way of distinguishing between the two blog, but perhaps over time I will.

I know you most likely came here by total coincidence but:

If you found me with an interest in my photos then I can recommend looking at either my Instragram or Flickr account or perhaps head over to the Photography section.

If you found me because of my absolutely flawless reputation as an outstanding consultant then do not hesitate to contact me or go over to my LinkedIn profile and have a closer look.

If you are interested in what I am reading or have been reading lately, then head over to Books.
