I received my M.Sc. degree with honours in 2005 in software engineering from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, where I continued with my Ph.D. studies. Currently I'm a lecturer at the Fault Tolerant Systems Research Group. My research interests are focused around software testing. We worked on comparing the robustness of standard-based high availability middleware systems. Recently I worked on testing in mobile settings, we created a test scenario language based on UML 2 Sequence Diagrams.

Apart from the research and educational activities I help to manage the IT infrastructure in the FTSRG group, mainly with the Windows servers and other Microsoft technologies. I like to spend my (minimal) spare-time with outdoor activities (cycling, trekking or climbing) and I enjoy to go to concerts. Oh, and I love to go to conferences organised in beautiful places, see a few photoes (this is one of the greatest advantages of being in academia:)
