What made you decide to study engineering?

I was attracted to and fascinated by technology from an early age. When I got an old Commodore VC 20 as a child, I was fascinated by the possibilities it offered and it was clear to me that it should go in the direction of computer science. During my studies the possibility arose to work scientifically in the field of optimization. I accepted this offer immediately.
