What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative research or teaching role combining AI/ML and data-driven projects, mentoring students, and partnering with industry to deliver applied Python-based solutions.

I am a scientific associate and lecturer specializing in informatics and Python, currently engaged in AI-focused teaching and research. I combine applied research with hands-on instruction to translate complex technical topics into accessible learning.

I hold advanced degrees in Wirtschaftsinformatik and completed a master thesis in cooperation with industry; I have also completed a Promotion at a German university. My academic work earned a top placement for thesis excellence and includes long-standing involvement in interdisciplinary projects.

My teaching and research emphasize AI, machine learning, neural networks and eye-tracking applications, alongside practical skills in Python, data exploration and database management. I have implemented websites, managed databases for heritage documentation, and taught courses spanning statistics, SPSS and web programming.

I look for collaborative, interdisciplinary roles that blend teaching, applied research and industry cooperation. I aim to contribute pragmatic, data-driven solutions while mentoring students and advancing institutional digital competence.
