Lecturer and Research Assistant at the Center for Digital Technologies (DIGIT), affiliated with the Institute for Software and Systems Engineering (ISSE) and the Secure Software Engineering research group at Clausthal University of Technology. My work focuses on AI‑driven solutions for secure software engineering, with an emphasis on trustworthy and privacy‑preserving machine learning.

Research Focus:

• Trustworthy AI and privacy-preserving AI
• Machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) for software engineering
• Security bug report prediction and empirical software security
• Secret detection and management in software repositories
• Evaluation of large language models (LLMs) for software security tasks
• Supervised by Prof Dr. Mohammad Ghafari.

Teaching & Academic Activities:

• Secure Coding (Winter term): obfuscation, reverse engineering, malware analysis
• Secure IT Systems (Summer term): AI security, adversarial ML, data poisoning attack
• Supervision of M.Sc. and B.Sc. theses (≈7 students) in applied ML/DL/LLMs for security, secret detection, and adversarial ML
• Student volunteer at FSE 2025 (Trondheim, Norway)
