+# About me
+
+I am a grad student in computer science at the University of Stuttgart, Germany. My main focus in this field is **Data Science**, **Machine Learning** and **AI**.\
+Apart from university, I am passionate about **Philosophy of Mind**, Theories of **Consciousness** and the **nature of reality**.\
+To drop a few names, I strongly resonate with many ideas of **Joscha Bach** (Philosophy, Consciousness, AI), **Stephen Wolfram** (Wolfram Physics, Observer Theory) and **Michael Levin** (Self Organization, Cognitive Agents).
