I have been a TEDx organizer, event curator, and science communicator for over 10 years. During my doctorate at the Technical University of Munich, I worked at the intersection of science and technology and taught software teams how to explain technical details of their system to people from all kinds of disciplines. I went on to manage a science engagement space and create various formats of science communication through digital media (amongst others, an award-winning podcast) at a next-generation life sciences museum in Munich. I also co-founded and grew TEDxTUM, a TEDx event at the Technical University of Munich, and now serve as TEDx ambassador in Germany to the world-wide community. I currently work as a Startup Generalist / Chief of Staff at a climate tech startup.

Growing up with TED talks and constantly drawing motivation and inspiration from them, I joined the organizing team of TEDxTUM at my university when they started back in 2014 and never looked back. A decade later, I am TEDx Ambassador for Germany and have the pleasure of contributing to the world-wide community.
