Over the years, I have started and completed a number of side projects and extracurricular activities.
Nowadays, most of my projects revolve around my work as a researcher, e.g. implementing social media crawlers or improving any skills required for my work. Not all of this is public. Building up the student union (ÖH) at IT:U as its chairperson also takes up a notable chunk of my time.
Technical projects
Nowadays, most of my technical projects originate from my work and studies. The most notable repository to find my current work is Zenodo.
- Research Software (Zenodo): Recent paper implementations archived on Zenodo.
- Models (Zenodo): Trained machine learning models (e.g. for social media post analysis).
There is also a small number of personal projects hosted on GitHub:
- Café Map (2024): A Leaflet.js map of all cafés in Salzburg with my personal reviews and recommendations. View it here.
- Third Places (2024): An interactive map of third places in Salzburg.
- LSH (2023): A Python implementation of nearest-neighbour search for text data using locality-sensitive hashing (LSH).
- Apriori (2023): A Python implementation of the (randomised) Apriori algorithm for mining frequent item sets.
- Diabetes Analytics (2022): An R Shiny app for pattern recognition and analysis of blood sugar data for diabetics.
- Dexcom Tray (2022): A Gnome tray application for displaying the current glucose level of Dexcom CGM users with the help of the Dexcom Share API.
Professional development
I have also completed a quite a few training programmes to expand my skillset:
- LEAD_able Summer School - Leadership Skills for Researchers
- Applied Psychoeducation for Researchers
- Spatial Data Science and Applications
- Architecting with Google Kubernetes Engine
- JavaScript Algorithms and Data Structures
- Responsive Web Design
Besides that, I completed the following courses that do not come with a certificate but are highly recommended for anyone interested in data journalism:
Journalistic work
During my time as a journalist, I published quite a few articles which are archived separately. It can be found here:
