visitor@jan-terminal:~$ cat profile.txt

I am a Computer Science Master’s student at the University of Rostock with a strong focus on applied AI, software engineering, and responsible AI systems.

My work sits at the intersection of technical rigor, explainability, and societal impact, especially in high-stakes domains such as animal welfare and education.

I am particularly interested in how AI systems can be designed so that they are not only performant, but also understandable, trustworthy, and aligned with human and societal needs.

In addition to research and development, I care deeply about teaching, accessibility, and community engagement. I believe technology should meaningfully improve lives and not just exist as an abstract capability.
