I am a PhD candidate at the TUM Institute for Ethics in AI (advised by Prof. Dr. Christoph Lütge) and Tech Lead of the AI Moderation Layer at BMW Group. I work on AI safety: I build guardrails, red-teaming systems, and organizational safety and compliance frameworks that keep large language models safe once they are actually deployed.
Lately my work has centered on adversarial red-teaming and the security of multimodal models: vision-language models, AI agents, and audio systems. I'm also interested in benchmarking organizational AI governance and the ethics of using GenAI in real products.

BMW Group · Munich
I lead the AI Moderation Layer, BMW's central guardrailing service for LLM applications. My team builds the checks that catch unsafe or off-policy model behaviour, and we red-team our own systems to find jailbreaks before anyone else does. It shipped with BMW's first customer-facing chatbot.
BMW Group · Munich
BMW's talent-development scholarship. I wrote my master's thesis on security for GenAI chatbots with the AI Platforms team, and rotated through data-analytics and E/E architecture projects along the way.
