For more than 13 years I have been connecting communications, strategy and technology — from regulation through digital infrastructure to hands-on delivery. Today I work with AI every day: Claude Code in development, custom scripts for routine work, an eye on the GDPR and the AI Act. To me, AI is infrastructure, not a showcase topic.

// about me

Political scientist, developer,
Swiss Army knife.

At BKS e.V. I head Market Development and Communications — with the association for more than 13 years, from position papers addressed to the German Federal Ministry of Finance, BaFin and the EBA to designing conferences for senior management. The BKS annual publication is produced under my direction: concept, editing, layout, print. So is the NPL Barometer, one of the reference indicators for the German credit risk market since 2015.

Over the past two years this has grown into more. I built the NPL Dashboard — a data platform for the European NPL market, live at npldata.eu — with data from the EBA, ECB and Eurostat, automated pipelines and interactive visualizations covering 27 EU countries, plus a bank-level view with institution data from the EBA Pillar 3 Data Hub. Alongside it: a self-built CRM for the association's communications.

I also build products of my own: tsuzuri.de, an AI-assisted platform for collaborative writing in 18 languages. Or calconverter.app, a tool that fixes a compatibility gap between Outlook and Google Calendar. Deployment runs on my own servers — Hetzner VPS, Docker, Coolify.

I studied political science at TU Braunschweig, with sociology and computer science as minors. That mix is the reason I work on regulatory texts in the morning and on data pipelines at night.
