+ Originally from Australia, where I earned my degrees in Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry, I moved to Germany in 2004. My academic pursuit continued with a Ph.D. in Chemistry at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry. Today, I leverage my robust educational background and diverse industry experience to drive AI innovations in a wide range of applications. Hobbies? Lots: I've also built the world's most powerful espresso machine and am working to bring [GLaDOS to life](https://github.com/dnhkng/GlaDOS).
