About Me
I am a PhD student in the Machine Learning Group led by Prof. Dr. Ulf Brefeld at the Leuphana University
of Lüneburg.
I have a Master's degree in Data Science and a Bachelor's degree in Industrial
Engineering and am currently involved in the ALEE project,
which explores adaptive (human) learning and the potential of providing individualized learning
paths and contextualized feedback in economics education.
My research focuses on developing machine learning algorithms that can be applied in a data-sparse
online learning setting.
We evaluate these algorithms in real-world settings with students in German schools to assess
their effectiveness and potential impact on student learning outcomes.
