Biography
In my role at Accenture Innovation, I focus on incubating and bringing AI-powered robotics to market by developing scalable, innovative business models that adapt to the rapidly evolving technological landscape at the intersection of technology and humanity.
At the Munich Institute of Robotics and Machine Intelligence (MIRMI) at TUM, one of Europe’s leading Integrative Research Centers in the field, I was with my team responsible for ensuring that cutting-edge research results in breakthrough innovations and tech-transfer into industry. MIRMI focuses on breakthrough methods and technologies for solving the grand societal challenges of our time (future of environment, work, health, mobility and environment) by disrupting the boundaries in robotics, perception and artificial intelligence.
Previously, I have gained over a decade of professional experience in industry as a department lead, manager and consultant in the areas of digitalization, technology innovation and IT project management. I have completed my PhD in computer science at the Karlsruhe Institure of Technology, in a collaboration program with Stanford University and SAP Research in Palo Alto. I have been broadly interested in human-computer-interaction and human-centered technologies.
