I'm pursuing my MSc in Computer Science at RPTU Kaiserslautern, specializing in Intelligent Systems. I'm currently an AI Research Intern at ABB, where I apply LLMs to industrial fault diagnosis and build RAG pipelines for log intelligence. Before pivoting to research in 2024, I spent seven years shipping software in C++, C#, and Angular across industrial sectors — which gave me a strong intuition for what AI actually needs to work in the real world.

My research sits at the intersection of human-in-the-loop learning, large language models, and AI sustainability. I care deeply about the gap between what AI can do and how humans actually work with it. My published work covers the energy footprint of LLM APIs and web agents, and a framework called HILL that lets humans directly reshape how a model learns during training.
