I am a member of the Information Systems Group led by Prof. Dr. Felix Naumann at the Hasso Plattner Institute, University of Potsdam. My research focus is on the field of data quality for and with machine learning. During my doctoral research, I worked in the field of data profiling with the aim of developing algorithms for efficiently processing and analyzing large volumes of data.

Beyond my research, I am also interested in keeping up with the latest developments in machine learning, data management, and integration. I am also constantly looking for new collaboration opportunities! Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, reading, cooking and training.

Research interests

  • Data quality for AI (fairness, non-discrimination, privacy)
  • Data profiling, integration and cleaning
  • Data mining and machine learning
  • Similarity search
