Data Scientist with over 6 years of experience in various domains.

Hello visitor and welcome to my website. On this page you will find various information about my professional life, my education, travels I did in the past and my hobbies. Feel free to contact me for additional information. My contact details are listed in the footer

Professional Life

I started my professional when I moved to California in 2014 to write my Master Thesis about "Application of FORM to Hydraulic Tomography" at the Univerisy of California, Berkeley. This work with a high focus on data mining, data preparation and designing mathematical models, lead me into the world of Data Science. So once I finished my Thesis I decided to move to Paris to start my first job as data scientist at Data&Data in the beginning of 2016. After more than 2 years I moved back to Munich, Germany and joined Infosys, once again in the role of a data scientist.

Berkeley

In Berkeley I worked as student researcher and wrote my Masters Thesis between September 2014 and September 2015.

Paris

In Paris I accepted my first full time position as a data scientist at the start-up company Data&Data where I focused on object detection with deep convolutional neural networks between January 2016 and April 2018. I was involved in all steps of the machine learning process from data ingestion over feature engineering to model training and deployment.

Munich

In June 2018 I started working as Data Scientist for Infosys in Munich, Germany. Since then I was engaged in some large digital transformation projects with clients in the field of Manufacturing, Retail and Healthcare. I designed and developed ent to end machine learning workflows in AWS and Azure cloud environmnets.

Universidad Politechnica Mardid

In my Erasmus Semester in Madrid I focused on Non-linear equations, dynamics and risk analysis. I also managed to pass the B2 level in Spanish.


Travels

China

My trip to China in 2012 was a great experence on a bike.
It all started in Dalian were I visited my amazing grand cousin and spend 2 weeks full of fun and insights into an unknown culture. I decided to buy a bike and visit another friend from school who was doing an internship in Kunshan close to Shanghai, 1200 km away. On the road I meet all kinds of great people that helped me whereever they could despite the fact that we almost could not communicate with each other :)
