About Me

Welcome to my personal website! I am a passionate quantum computing researcher and software developer currently pursuing my MSc in Computer Science at Technische Universität München (TUM), with a focus on HPC and quantum computing. I just finished my master thesis on compilation for Quantum Error Correction (QEC)! I'm about to start my PhD with the Systems Research Group under Prof. Pramod Bhatotia at TUM, focusing on quantum computing and error correction.

Additionally, I'm currently the Department Lead QuantenTräume at PushQuantum e.V, where I organize science communication events and public speaking presentations on quantum technology. Lastly, I'm one of the founding committee members of the newly formed Next Generation Committee of the ISC High Performance Conference, where I help organize parts of the conference and support the next generation of HPC researchers. My interests span quantum computing, AI, HPC, mathematics, natural sciences, traveling, running, and public speaking.
