Hi, I am a PhD candidate at the chair Security in Telecommunications (SecT) at the Technische Universität Berlin, Germany. My research topics belong to network and software security with a strong focus on web security. As part of my research assistant position at the university, I also teach students and supervise theses or projects. If you are looking for a collaboration partner or a supervisor, feel free to contact me.
Further, I participate in CTFs as part of ENOFLAG and lead the student club AG Rechnersicherheit e.V.. I also do IT-Sec Freelance Work and give talks at various conferences.
