About

I am an Associate Professor for Artificial Intelligence at the SDU Metaverse Lab of the University of Southern Denmark. My research is focused on the topics of machine learning, decision-making, and artificial intelligence. I am fascinated by the learning capabilities of the human brain and excited to study algorithms for enabling more efficient learning processes.

I earned my B.Sc., M.Sc., and PhD in Computer Science from Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg (OVGU) under the supervision of Prof. Rudolf Kruse. My postdoctoral work spans Queen Mary University of London and OVGU, followed by a Junior Professorship at Leibniz University Hannover.

I am an active member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and previously served as chair of the IEEE CIS Games Technical Committee, the IEEE Conference on Games, and several subcommittees of IEEE CIS Education.
