Hi there!
I am a 3rd year PhD Candidate supervised by Thomas Augustin at the Department of Statistics at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) Munich. I am currently at the Department of Statistics at Harvard University, working with James Bailie under the supervision of Xiao-Li Meng. If you’re in the area and would like to meet, do not hesitate to reach out!
My research revolves around optimization, online learning, and decision theory. I try to render such methods more reliable by representing the involved uncertainties, heavily relying on imprecise probabilities. I am also interested in interpretable machine learning and anything Bayesian. My research has been published in Q1 journals (Machine Learning, Knowledge-Based Systems) and A*/A conferences (NeurIPS, ICLR, UAI, EMNLP).
I enjoy teaching a lot and teach several (under)graduate classes at our department and co-supervise bachelor and master theses. Potential thesis topics under my supervision can be found here. Besides, I do academic student counselling in our Bachelor’s program “Statistics and Data Science”.
I am part of the the Graduate Center of the Bavarian Research Institute for Digital Transformation (bidt) within the Bavarian Academy of Sciences (BAS). The graduate center is a great place to learn about the many aspects of a digital world that are beyond my own research on machine learning and statistics/data science. My research was partly supported by the Federal Statistical Office of Germany within the cooperation “Machine Learning in Official Statistics”.
