I find a problem and
build my way out.
The urge to build my vision never stopped.
I started at IT HelloWorld School building games, automations and a personal finance tracker for my own pocket money. Today I run ELEVATE, a web studio building sites for businesses end-to-end, and head IT for the Future Founders Initiative.
I research AI-driven process optimization internationally, and my Jugend forscht project HappyPlant, an AI-powered smart irrigation system, is scaling toward a city-level water use case. Alongside, I'm building Sync and LiveNote.
I'm as invested in European politics and intercultural education as in code, because I care about the why behind technology as much as the how.
Selected Work
Prototype early, fail fast,
ship fast.
Every project begins by understanding the real problem: talking to the people who have it, mapping the constraints, and testing assumptions before a line of code is written.
From AI process mining to hardware sensors, I stay hands-on across the full stack, shipping tools that turn scientific insight into practical, working products.
Fluent across the stack (Python, TypeScript, React Native, Supabase) and comfortable taking a product from research and prototype to launch.
