In 2019, I won the "Startup Teens" competition for my prototype of a smartphone for elderly people, which is running a custom version of Android with a minimalistic UI. "StartUp Teens" is a competition which is sponsored by Meta, Amazon, Commerzbank, Philipp Lahm Holding and many other notable organizations. Generally, I strive to make things as simple and clean as possible, using minimalistic and functional design, to make life easier for people.

E-commerce project where I sold an eye-catching duck plush through viral marketing via TikTok, Instagram and other platforms.

While I was in high school, I worked part-time at innofabrik, which is a full stack marketing agency and certified Google partner. My job was to grow social media profiles of our customers by automating targeted actions such as liking, commenting, following, etc. This method was uncommon back then, but extremely effective. I was also responsible for monitoring and optimizing Google Ads campaigns.

Due to increasing low attention span of people, I understood that short content - such as short videos - will be common practice in the future. This is why I created an Android app, where you could watch memes which are shorter than 10 seconds.

I was part of a small group of under 18 year old entrepreneurs, along with notable people such as Fynn Fenselau, Benedikt Held, Nicolas Karges, Rohin Patidja, Maximilian Prinz, Raphael Zimmer, and many others. We held various workshops in Germany.

Legomania is a robotic group where we attend various international robotic competitions such as FIRST® LEGO® League (FLL) and World Robot Olympiad (WRO). As a Senior member I also coached and motivated our Junior members.
