🎓 Academic Background

May 2020 M.Sc. in Mathematics in Finance and Industry at TU Braunschweig
Mar 2017 B.Sc. in Mathematics in Finance and Industry at TU Braunschweig

🔬 Research

My research is devoted to the intersection of optimization techniques and machine learning, aiming to distill qualitative insights from the inherent optimality guarantees of traditional global optimization methods. I am currently developing MiniMIP, an open-source standalone Mixed Integer Linear Programming Solver, to seamlessly integrate machine learning applications with MIP solvers, and vice versa.
