Johannes was head of consulting at a junior consulting company while he did his Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering. Although he enjoyed the fast paced and diverse life as a process engineering and management consultant, he always felt unfulfilled after a project was finished.

He decided to move to Denmark for a Master’s degree, where he focused his studies on Machine Learning and Computational Neuroscience. He is now driven by the wish to understand the human brain and the goal to augment cognition with the help of machine intelligence.He co-founded a company for remote physical therapy and works at eBay as a data scientist and machine learning expert.

As a stereotypical German, Johannes works hard and works efficiently, and does not have fun without a valid reason.
