I am a passionate problem-solver driven by scientific and innovative solutions, blending theoretical frameworks with rigorous empirical backing. My career aspirations lie in engineering, software development, and EdTech. With hands-on experience in structural and mechanical engineering, I developed a deep fascination for cutting-edge technologies shaping the future. During my master’s program, I transitioned into software development, merging technical expertise with a strong interest in learning and knowledge acquisition. This inspired the conceptualization of an EdTech start-up, currently being developed in collaboration with UnternehmerTUM. To advance this venture, I am actively honing my web development and research skills to deliver impactful solutions. As a determined goal-setter with a proven ability to adapt and grow, I am dedicated to achieving results that drive meaningful change.
