Scientific Assistant

As a researcher with a focus on Game Design for the KulturXpand project, I am part of a groundbreaking initiative aimed at developing an interactive real-world metaverse within the cultural sector. This platform will enable the creation of interactive points of interest (iPOI) without the need for programming knowledge.

VR Development & Design

Design and programming for a wide range of XR projects for a grid of diverse clients and applications. In particular in the areas of level- and game-design as well as programming. Since the team is relatively small, it is necessary to work on several projects at the same time, thus requiring quick adaptability to new projects

Intern VR Development & Production

I started Production assistant for 360° VR films and as a designer and programmer for smaller real-time VR projects. Over the time of the internship and in the transition phase from internship to working student, I helped to build up the real-time department of the company; especially during the development of the VodafoneGigaCar and the TimeRideVR project.

With a keen eye for detail and a passion for storytelling, I bring virtual worlds to life.
