About

I am currently pursuing my master in Computer Science at RWTH Aachen, writing my master thesis at COMSYS regarding privacy technologies in the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). My interests lie in all kind of security & privacy related topics, in particular, in the protection of both personal and industrial data.

In 2017 I finished my Bachelor with honors at RWTH Aachen with an overall mark of 1.1. For the corresponding thesis I designed, implemented and evaluated a platform for the privacy-preserving and user-controlled exchange of private information. Afterwards, I undertook an exchange year at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS).

I have been member of the dean’s list (best 5% of CS students at RWTH Aachen) from 2014 until 2020. Moreover, I was sponsored by the German education fund (Bildungsfonds) for 3 years during my studies. In 2016, I was awarded the best seminar award by FOLKS for my seminar paper on Bloom Cookies.

I worked as a teaching assistant for multiple subjects, including operating systems & system software, computability & complexity and introduction to business informatics. During my exchange year, I was running a python course for the UTS housing facilities. In 2019, I worked as a research assistant for a project regarding service bootstrapping via Bitcoin at COMSYS, RWTH Aachen.
