About Me

A researcher and builder at the intersection of AI, product, and design — I ship what I make.

I spent 2.5+ years embedded at IBM iX, working as one of the leading UX designers responsible for applications on a global automotive aftersales platform used by 5,000+ dealerships across 54 countries.

During that, I co-founded Tapari, a startup building sensor-based interactive hardware, funded by Hessen Ideen and EXIST — more at tapari.de.

I hold an M.A. in Leadership in Digital Innovation from UdK Berlin (grade 1.3), where my thesis explored how AI is reshaping UX practice — audit trails, governance, and trust included.
