About Me
I have studied economics and history at the universities of Düsseldorf, Wuppertal and Tartu. During my studies, I have mainly worked as a student assistant in research and teaching, but also did internships in the financial and cultural sector, e.g. at the Deutsche Bundesbank.
Since June 2023, I am enrolled as an external doctoral student in Economics at the University of Düsseldorf and work as a Data Analyst. If you are interested in my research, feel free to contact me (via the contact form or LinkedIn).
