About
Bioinformatics graduate with a Bachelor's degree from Freie Universität Berlin and practical experience in the healthcare and life sciences sector through an internship and bachelor's thesis at Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin. During this time, I developed strong analytical skills and gained hands-on experience in computational biology, data analysis, and scientific problem-solving. Most recently, I spent 2025 at Afrigen Biologics & Vaccines in the Engineering Department, working at the intersection of biology, data, and engineering.
This role strengthened my problem-solving abilities and provided valuable experience in interdisciplinary, innovation-driven environments. From February 2026, I am enrolled in the Honours Programme in Bioinformatics at University of Cape Town, where I continue to advance my expertise in computational biology, bioinformatics applications, and data-driven research.
