I'm the research manager of the DFKI Lab Darmstadt and a postdoctoral researcher at the Systems Group. In December 2023 I defended my PhD thesis titled “Democratizing Information Access Through Low Overhead Systems” under the supervision of Carsten Binnig.
I started working for the Data Management Lab as a PhD student in January 2018 and was part of the research training group AIPHES from July 2018 to June 2021. Since July 2021, I am additionally affiliated with the National High Performance Computing Center for Computational Engineering Sciences (NHR4CES).
From March 2021 to February 2023, I lead the BMBF funded project INTEXPLORE – Interactive Structured Text Exploration, which I have acquired as part of the Software Campus.
I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science in 2014 and a Master of Science in Computer Science as well as a Master of Science in Internet- and Web-Based Systems in 2017 all from Technical University of Darmstadt.
Between 04/2014 and 09/2017 I worked as student assistant for the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics (IGD). Additionally, I was student assistant for several different courses at Technical University of Darmstadt between 10/2012 and 12/2017.
During my studies I was a member of the student council and part of different commissions and groups as well as responsible for organizing the welcome week for first year students for five times.
