Researcher Sports Analytics
Deutscher Fußball-Bund, Zelus Analytics / Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen
With a background in mathematics and computer science, I worked as an applied researcher and as a coach/speaker at Fraunhofer Big Data & Artificial Intelligence Alliance.
Additionally, I graduated with my Doctoral thesis at Tübingen University, where I investigated the automated detection of tactical patterns in soccer using machine learning techniques.
I have 10 years of experience as a soccer coach in German semi-professional leagues and hold a UEFA A-level coaching license. I am working for the DFB since 2019, leading the areas of data analytics and research, as well as fulfilling a part-time role as a data-scientist at Zelus analytics. Between 2021 and 2023 I was working as a data-scientist for the men's German national team. When not working, I enjoy playing soccer, tennis and golf.
