My background
I completed my legal traineeship at the Higher Regional Court of Stuttgart, with stations in the legal department of an international company and with the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information.

Before starting my legal traineeship, I furthered my education in the field of Law and Technology within the framework of an LL.M. in the Netherlands. During that year, I specialised in particular in Data Protection Law, with a special focus on the applicability of the EU GDPR in the area of Artificial Intelligence. Furthermore, the focus was on the regulation of new technologies, the E-commerce sector and Contract Law. At the same time, I did research on data protection for the INFO-LEG project.

I studied law in Leipzig and have already worked here for two and a half years in a law firm in Data Protection.
