About me ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ’ป

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Human Computer Interaction group at the University of Hamburg led by Prof.Frank Steinicke, working on the European Union funded project PRESENCE.

I was a Ph.D. fellow at the Helmholz Graduate School for Structured of Matter (DASHH) supervised by Prof.Frank Steinicke, Dr. Reinhard Bacher, and Prof.Wim Leemans. In my Ph.D., I work interdisciplinary between the particle accelerator control system group at the German Electron Synchrotron (DESY) and the Human Computer Interaction group at the Hamburg University. I am developing mixed reality technology for operating large-scale physics facilities such as particle accelerators and high-power lasers.

Before joining DASHH, I graduated from the Master of Photonics program at the Abbe School of Photonics, where I had extensive training in applied and theoretical optics. During my masterโ€™s study, I also worked as a research assistant at the German Aerospace Center (DLR), and the Fraunhofer Institute of Precision Engineering and Applied Optics.
