Summary:
I am a Researcher  with expertise in API specification, geospatial machine learning and software engineering. Currently, I am working at the Spatio-Temporal Modeling Lab of the Institute for Geoinformatics (IFGI) Münster on 2 EU-funded projects: Open Earth Monitor Cyberinfrastructure (€12.7 Million) and an Interdisciplinary Digital Twin Engine (€11.7 Million). These projects involve collaborative work within consortia and have a shared objective of creating innovative solutions for environmental monitoring and advancing digital twin technology.
 
Education:
- PhD Geoinformatics (University of Münster, Ongoing)
- M.Sc. Geoinformatics (University of Münster)
- B.A. Geography (Moi University)
