BIO
My main study background is in HCI (M.Sc. @ LMU in Munich, Germany). I specialized in affective computing & decision-support systems for expert users. Additionally, I attended an add-on study program in Technology Management @ the Center for Digital Technology and Management (CDTM) where I also met my co-founders.
