I am Sari, a small VR and AR developer, trying to reach high.
–
Born and raised in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. After a short period of studying game programming, I discovered my interest in Application Programming and AR and VR technologies.
Summary
I am a programmer in Game Development with a focus on VR / AR technology.
I finished my final Bachelor thesis with a focus on AR technology at the SAE University in Hamburg in 2021.
I finished my master's degree in media informatics by distance learning at Wilhelm Büchner University in 2025.
During my studies, I focused on the development of interactive applications in the field of virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR). I worked with state-of-the-art technologies such as Unreal Engine 5, Unity, C++ and C# and dealt intensively with the design of immersive user experiences.
I was able to gain my first practical experience in VR/AR development during my studies, both through academic projects and by working as an assistant in research project at the Fraunhofer Institut. Not only did I deepened my technical knowledge, but also gained valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities of this pioneering technology. I am highly motivated to build on my experience and take on new, challenging tasks in order to continuously expand my knowledge.
