About

I work as a Creative Technologist at the intersection of technology, culture and sustainability. My focus lies in immersive media, interactive installations, and the question of how emerging technologies can enable sensory and socially relevant experiences – in museums, urban environments, or sustainability-driven projects. I’m interested in how new narratives emerge when design, tech and societal purpose come together. ✨ Open to collaborations with museums, agencies, research institutions and interdisciplinary teams.

Experience

  • Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter at Hochschule Düsseldorf (HSD) University of Applied Sciences
    Apr 2020 - Present · 6 yrs 3 mos

    I work as a Research Associate exploring how immersive media and interactive technologies can create meaningful experiences – in cultural, urban and sustainability-driven contexts. That includes designing and running workshops on concept development and the practical use of emerging technologies, as well as advising on how to integrate new tools into creative and research-driven processes. The questions that interest me most sit at the intersection of design, technology and societal purpose – and how research can make that intersection more tangible.
