My programming skills
My Education
Apprenticeship in Banking with Matura
From 2013 until 2016 I got to know the world of banking.
During these 3 years I worked in multiple departments of a local universal bank and discovered my interest in financial topics such as payment services, investment analysis and credit financing.
I also took the opportunity to get my Matura simultaneously, which allowed me to take the next step in my career: my BIT Bachelor’s degree.
Bsc Business Information Technology
From Summer 2018 until 2021 I completed my Bachelor of Science in Business Information Technology at the University of Applied Sciences of Northwestern Switzerland.
During these years I got introduced to IT and could discover new technologies and methodologies in terms of programming and process management. It allowed me to make use of my business perspective while also learning about how to approach projects with Scrum, Kanban and other agile frameworks. Moreover, I got the chance to develop desktop software, mobile apps and some smaller AI models together with my fellow peers.
I wrote my Bachelors Thesis about the use cases of AI-supported e-mail response automation at a major financial institution of Switzerland. During this project, I could test my own analytical skills and take a leap into innovative software solutions. Finally, my findings were then presented to the management board.

Experiences and Service Duty
During and after my apprenticeship I collected 5 years of banking experience, which introduced me to nearly all major fields of business in the context of a universal bank. Overall, I was part of more than 10 teams. I supported back-office teams in (e-)payment services, asset management, credit administration and even logistics. I was also part of multiple sales teams where I assisted sales representatives of different customer segments in the private and the corporate sector.
Since the completion of my Business Information Technology degree I now have the opportunity to make use of my skills in my position as Business Excellence Manager at SIX SIS AG. In this role I am tasked with data gathering, cleanup and subsequent visualizations. A major part of my time is also dedicated to automation projects which I either take on myself, or am involved in a coordinating/analyst role. For future progress, I am learning python as a main programming language to further improve in these areas.
In the summer of 2017 I completed the military school as an accounting solder in the caserne Drognens, located in Romont FR, Switzerland. During my service I was responsible for the accounting as well as revisions of the resulting reports.
Later on I was assigned to be the assistant of the quartermaster, for whom i had to do supporting tasks in his daily business.
The team-work with my french speaking supervisor and comrades improved my French and gave me a sense for initiative and organisation.
After completion of the school of recruits I decided to join the civil service in 2018. I chose to do my first service in the kitchen of our local hospital, where I was part of the cooking and dish-washing teams.
Two years later I returned to the hospital to support the logistics department in their daily business. Here, I was responsible for the maintenance of the inventory, the timely delivery of orders as well as the physical re-stocking of products.
In the summer of 2021, I completed my service duty at a local rehabilitation center, where I got to transport patients on their way to their physiotherapy sessions, while also giving them some company and entertainment during times of boredom.
