I was born on July 18, 1973 in Vienna, Austria and still live there. After kindergarten, I attended primary school from 1979 until 1983, followed by BRG 12 Rosasgasse (grammar school) where I graduated in 1991 with honors. In spring 1991, I placed 6th at the Austrian Physics Olympiad. Between 1989 and 1994, I had several summer jobs with Siemens, IBM, Honeywell and Shell. The majority of these jobs dealt with administrative projects and computer programming. From 1991 on, I have been studying Electrical Engineering at the Vienna University of Technology. In January 1999, I made my diploma exam (MEng) with honors and decided to head for the doctoral degree, which is completed by this thesis. Since 1995, I have been working with the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. I began with maintenance jobs on gas detectors of the DELPHI experiment at CERN (CH), but soon switched over to Diamond Detector research as a member of the CERN RD42 collaboration, which was also the topic of my Diploma Thesis. Already in 1998, I commenced my work on the CMS Silicon Strip Tracker, interrupted by a temporary employment at MIT and BNL (both USA) in early 1999, where I took part in the construction of the Silicon Spectrometer of the PHOBOS Experiment. For the near future, I intend to stay with the HEPHY at least during the CMS construction period. A more detailed and up-to-date CV is available
