01 — About me

I build applications that use AI. Across three project rotations at Swisscom I have moved from low-code all the way to production-grade platform development. My focus: the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which lets AI assistants access and interact with enterprise platforms securely.

Simultaneous Translation start screen with language selection and context field

Simultaneous Translation

Transcribes speech in real time and translates it on the fly — for events where not everyone shares a language. A context field lets you supply names and technical terms up front, so the recognition gets them right.

Simulated semi-finals and final, Spain becoming world champion 2026
Machine learning

Football predictions

ML model for predicting match results — from data preparation to the trained model. It rates individual matches by probability and simulates the whole 2026 World Cup: the winner comes out as Spain. When the project was built the play-offs had not been decided yet — which is why Italy runs through the bracket even though it did not qualify.
