I am a PhD researcher for IT Security and Privacy at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) working on evaluating and designing biometric anonymization methods for video.
I first started coding in my school's website project group in 2010, quickly becoming more interested in the field: creating and maintaining a multitude of web applications on various platforms.
Using Linux privately since 2013, I am also used to server administration.
In 2015 and 2016 during 11th grade of school, I was privileged to already visit and complete some computer science lectures at university.
Next to my Bachelor's degree studies at KIT, I acquired some real-world work-experience by administrating linux servers at dmTECH and cloud infrastructure at Siemens Mindsphere.
I also discovered my passion for IT-Security, prompting me to focus my electives in this area.
During my Master's studies I gained experience in teaching by working as a tutor for operating systems and research as a student research assistant for behavioral privacy.
Administration of a kubernetes cluster as well as a VMware cluster with over 4000 linux hosts by using and administrating tools like puppet, icinga, foreman and gitlab.
Design and Maintenance of terraform IaC code for Mindsphere environments on AWS including their continuous integration and delivery pipelines on gitlab CI.
