Recent PhD graduate of TU Berlin mentored by Volker Markl and cooperating with Tilmann Rabl and Steffen Zeuch.
My research interests are data management using modern hardware and distributed systems. Currently I am investigating how we can use fast, next-generation interconnects such as NVLink to scale data management on GPUs.
Previously, I worked as a researcher at DFKI. Before starting my PhD studies, I received my MSc degree from ETH Zurich in collaboration with IBM Research, Zurich under supervision of Thomas R. Gross and Animesh Trivedi. My Master's was preceded by an exchange at Imperial College London, where I wrote my BSc thesis under supervision of Peter Pietzuch and Paolo Costa, during my Bachelor's studies at ETH Zurich.
