About me
Myself
I was born on 04.05.1988 in Berlin. Berlin is great, so I stayed there for 20 years till I had passed the Abitur (diploma from German secondary school qualifying for university admission or matriculation). In my spare time I had a lot of hobbies. For example I used to play piano and guitar for several years and went in for sports a lot. After different sports like ski, tennis and squash I pointed out free climbing as my favorite. Thus I qualified to a Jugendleiter of the Deutschen Alpenverein (de) (German Alpine Association) and engaged in youth work consequently. I adopted a youth group and ventured several trips for example to the Elbsandsteingebirge, Frankenjura or to the gorges of southern France.
In October 2008 I started studying computer science at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and finished my Bachelor degree in summer term 2011. My Bachelor thesis Discovering Vocabulary of a Language through Cross-Lingual Alignment was co-supervised by Carnegie Mellon University staff, partly while a research stay at the Qatar Computing Research Institute in Doha. Since October 2011, I am Master student at the KIT, but I spent my first year at the National Taiwan University in Taipei. This allowed me to learn new perspectives to computer science as well as Chinese language and culture.
