Freelance Software Engineering Consultant

Biography

I am a freelance consultant on organization development, software engineering and data science.

Previously I was the Vice President of Engineering at Smart Reporting. Where I was responsible for organizing the development department with 35 engineers.

Before taking the VP role at SmartReporting I was a Principal Software Engineer and conducted research on artificial intelligence in healthcare.

I used to be postdoctoral researcher at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and received my doctoral degree in 2018 under the supervision of Jürgen Richter-Gebert (chair of Geometry and Visualization) where I also worked as one of the lead developers of CindyJS, a framework to create interactive mathematical content for the web.
