Who am I?

I'm passionate about AI be it the technical, sociological or the philosophical side of it.

I studied informatics (M.Sc.) until 2020 at the KIT, Germany with a focus on AI and robotics. After collecting several years of experience in the field of computer vision and machine learning during my studies and student work at the Fraunhofer IOSB, I founded preML with two friends in 2020. During my free time, I like to go hiking, running and mountain biking. During my travels I enjoy eating good food and drinking specialty coffee in cozy cafés.

Experience

At preML, I worked with many small and medium-sized companies to help them integrate our advanced computer vision systems into their production processes. I visited various production sites and gained valuable insights into the industry's challenges. In developing new systems, I addressed issues such as data scarcity, low-latency edge computing requirements, and the need for robust and adaptable solutions in changing environments. We also created a web-based graphical user interface to make the systems user-friendly for our customers and developed a custom Python-based computer vision pipeline.

My work at preML allowed me to enhance my software engineering skills, project management abilities, and customer communication while continuing to stay involved in programming.
