Hi, I'm Thore, and I'm interested in the topics of digitalization, people, and artificial intelligence. After completing my master's degree in Psychology, I worked as a lead data scientist and data product manager; later, I was a backend engineer at an eduTech company, and I am currently working as a freelancer. In 2017, I co-founded the Johannsen + Krüger GbR with a good friend as a side business, through which we have already realized several digitalization projects and continue to be active.
Through my career path, I have been able to develop and expand various skills, including digital product development, social and organizational psychology, team leadership and agile management, programming with various languages, and data science or machine learning. In addition, I enjoy sharing my knowledge and have a German blog about digitalization, people, and AI, as well as a blog on programming with R.

For project success, harmonic cooperation is fundamental. For me this encompasses regular, effective, and honest communication: Precise definitions of done and periodic feedback loops lead to quick results without bad surprises.
