About Me.
I'm an interdisciplinary data scientist working at the intersection of business, technology, and AI.
My passion is to build a sustainable economy that can continuously reduce the required resources. I developed transformers to understand landcover, built a tool to make climate science more accessible, and researched the drivers and components of businesses.
I currently work at QuantumBlack, a machine learning consultancy. My work combines solving complex business problems, developing deep neural networks, and implementing large-scale data infrastructures.
I studied Management and Computer Science at the Technical University of Munich to learn about solving technical business problems and entrepreneurship. Afterward, I completed an MS in Data Science with a focus on deep learning at Columbia University to solidify my technical understanding and drive technological products forward myself.
