As a freelance consultant, I work on the digital humanities project "Open Encyclopedia Systems", which offers a online platform for building and maintaining online academic encyclopedias. I applied my specialist knowledge from previous work experience with the online encyclopedia "1914-1918-online" to developing new software functionalities. I also prepared peer-reviewed, academic articles for publication.

Berlin Area, Germany

I was the project coordinator for two international projects based at the Freie Universität Berlin: “1914-1918-Online. International Encyclopedia of the First World War” (http://www.1914-1918-online.net) and "Winning Peace- The End of the First World War with its History, Remembrance and Current Challenges" (http://www.win-peace-conference.berlin)."Winning Peace" is a high-level international conference, which was held at the Federal Foreign Office (Auswärtiges Amt) in October 2018. As project coordinator, I was responsible for all aspects of the conference, including the program, speakers, public relations (in particular social media), the budget as well as the conference team."1914-1918-online" is an academic online reference work on World War One and a highly complex digital humanities project, involving more than 1,000 contributors from 50+ countries and 30+ institutional partners. As project coordinator I am responsible for liaising with all project participants, overseeing the editorial process, budget management and the external presentation of the project.
