I'm an MSc Informatics student at UZH (AI major, Data Science minor). Most of the work is Python and Jupyter notebooks, plus Solidity and on-chain data. Before Zurich I did a BSc in Computer Science at Royal Holloway.

Large wallets loop yield-bearing stablecoins on Aave and Morpho to stack extra yield. We ask whether those wallets actually follow a handful of shared strategies, how the strategies differ in how they manage risk, and whether the on-chain state of a position can tell you a stressful day is coming.

I designed the protocol architecture, shipped the contracts to Ethereum mainnet, and own everything technical after that: security, audits, investor infrastructure, and the institutional partnerships a DeFi company needs to actually operate.

I spent the summer on TakeNow's Next.js app for a live shop: in-store kiosks, the online ordering flow, and the admin that sits on Prisma and MySQL.

Zappi tests product concepts with surveys. We built Concepts2Metrics to extract data-driven insights from those concepts, so the team could see which attributes actually mattered.

Pitched FlowReserve: SME payment automation on Solana. Programmable USDC escrow routes idle cash into conservative yield between fixed payment dates, then settles on-chain on the due date. 1st place ($250 prize).

Python, OpenCV
A moving camera has to reconstruct its own path from the video. With one camera that path has no scale in metres, and a fast rotation is enough to lose the track. We filmed a Swiss cablecar on a Samsung S20, used the phone's gyroscope to keep tracking when vision failed, and used its IMU to put the path into metres.

Solidity, Morpho, Chainlink Automation
Most staking apps pay you by printing a new token. This one does not. You deposit WETH, USDC or EURC on Base, the contract puts it into a Morpho vault, and a daily harvest sends you the yield in the same token you put in.

Python, SPARQL, Ollama
A chatbot that answers questions from a Wikidata-derived knowledge graph. It tries SPARQL first, falls back to embeddings when the graph has no hit, and only then asks a local LLM running on Ollama.
