Biography

I received my B.Sc and M.Sc degree in Electrical Engineering  in 2018 and 2021, respectively.
During my studies, I started to collaborate with Prof. Martin Bossert in order to develop efficient hard- and soft-decision decoding algorithms for for algebraic codes.
Under the supervision of Prof. Antonia Wachter-Zeh, I am conducting research on code-based cryptography.
