About me

I'm a tech-driven finance enthusiast with a passion for blending new technologies and traditional wisdom to shape the future of finance. Currently pursuing a Master of Finance at Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, I work as a Working Student at Investment Data Services GmbH (Allianz Group), contributing to data-driven innovations in the financial sector.

Before diving deep into finance, I spent four years as a Cyber Risk Consultant at Deloitte, optimizing and automating processes and managing cyber risk for Fortune 500 clients. With a computer science background and hands-on experience in finance, my mission is to bridge the gap between technology and capital markets—leveraging AI and data analytics to drive smarter financial decisions.

Beyond numbers and algorithms, I thrive on public speaking and debating, having competed (and won!) in several championships since 2012. When I'm not pulling all-nighters coding and optimizing financial models, you'll find me scaling mountains, exploring historical sites, capturing landscapes through my lens, or experimenting in the kitchen as a passionate home chef. Also, if there's a game of field hockey, count me in!

Always eager to collaborate, learn, and push the boundaries of finance and tech. Let's connect and innovate together!
