Hi, I am a (theologian) digitalisation expert with a strong focus on AI.
Computers and philosophical questions have fascinated me since my early childhood. I started coding at age 10 and built my first website at age 14. In 2014, I graduated in Catholic theology with a thesis on artificial intelligence and human anthropology. Ever since then, I have been following the latest developments in the digital and AI field, currently as a consultant in the German higher education landscape. Besides digitalisation, my piano and good coffee are important to me.
