I have done research for several years on visual perception and attention in the field of cognitive psychology.
In parallel, I have toured with my band Pitchtuner for more than 10 years in Europe, Asia and USA. With my band, I for example represented Berlin at EXPO Shanghai.
I develop my own unique instruments and controllers to make electronic music performable in a new way. This is how I got in touch with the HPI School of Design Thinking very early. I was a D-School student in 2009 and after finishing the course, I started coaching for the HPI Academy and other Agencies.
I have been part of the D-School coaching team since 2011 and lately have focused on supporting teams with prototyping and making their ideas tangible and testable. I am a maker and tinkerer, permanently exploring new technologies in the field of AR, VR and open source electronic prototyping platforms like Arduino or ESP32.
