About Me

I am currently a Hale Visiting Assistant Professor in the School of Mathematics at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta. Previously, I was a Visiting Scholar at Georgia Tech hosted by Andrzej Święch and funded by a fellowship of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). In July 2022, I completed my PhD at Technische Universität Berlin and the Berlin Mathematical School. My supervisor was Wilhelm Stannat.
