Who am I?

I have just finished my Abitur (A-Levels) in Germany and will start studying at the technical university of Munich in October. I am currently using my free time to work on my own projects and to learn new things. During my school time, I have competed in multiple competitions, such as the German science fair (Jugend Forscht), a students founding competition (Jugend Gründet) or the German Computer Science Olympiad (BwInf) and won prizes in all of them. I also accomplished my junior studies in Computer Science and Mathematics at the HHU (Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf) where I already finished multiple courses.

Why am I interested in computer science

My passion for computer science and mathematics stems from a deep fascination with physics and our quest to comprehend the world around us. It was through the realm of computer simulations in physics that I discovered my eagerness to develop my own simulations. This journey led me to delve into mathematical models within physics and delve into the fundamental principles of computer science. At the age of 13, I embarked on a self-guided journey of learning Python, utilizing a book I stumbled upon on Amazon. As I delved into Python, my thirst for knowledge in computer science and mathematics grew rapidly. Despite struggling with math during my school years, I found myself gradually developing a genuine appreciation for it. Through self-teaching, I had the opportunity to explore the subjects that captivated me, ultimately leading to remarkable improvements in my academic performance.
