Insight. Impact. Innovation.
“𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝘁.” – Alan Kay I’ve always been driven by the desire to shape what comes next. From leading on the basketball court as the smallest player and team captain to navigating complex challenges in tech. I started to work at SAP in the Business AI team, transitioned to the federal ministry of research, technology and space (BMFTR) after being recommended to be the personal assistant of the federal minister. Besides completing my master’s degree, I am currently working on digital transformation and change managment initiatives within the ministry.

Speaker & Moderator
From moderating the AI@HPI Conference to delivering keynotes and guest lectures on international stages, I approach every speaking engagement with optimism, curiosity, and a deep passion. My background in professional sports shapes how I communicate — with clarity, energy, and purpose — helping audiences think differently about the technologies shaping our world, and empowering them to carry that knowledge into their work, decisions, and everyday lives.
