Short CV
I received a Diploma (with honors) in Computer Science from RWTH Aachen University in 2011. From 2011 to 2012, I worked as a freelance Data Analyst for Zalando GmbH in Berlin focussing on data mining and machine learning. I started my PhD in 2012, working at Philips Research, Eindhoven, Netherlands for one and half years. In October 2013, I returned full time to RWTH Aachen University. I earned my PhD in March 2018 and have been working at the the Institute for Energy Efficient Buildings and Indoor Climate at the EON Energy Research Center at RWTH Aachen University first part-time then full-time since August 2017 and June 2018, respectively.
My research at COMSYS and dissertation focuses on the design of digital services with strong guarantees of data security and privacy based on cryptographic techniques such as secure multi-party computation, anonymization technologies (e.g., Differential Privacy) and other advanced (non-)cryptographic primitives.
