I am a PhD candidate at the MPI MiS in Leipzig, where I am supervised by Anna-Laura Sattelberger. I am interested in just about any interaction of the fields of Differential Geometry, (Nonlinear) Algebra, and Topology.

For my dissertation, I am working on Algebraic Analysis. More specifically, I am investigating differential equations governing integrals in particle physics and cosmology. My work is funded by the UNIVERSE+ grant.

Previously, I studied at Jacobs University Bremen and wrote a bachelor thesis on “Subflagdomains in the Context of Variation of Hodge Structures” under supervision of Alan Huckleberry. Afterwards, I moved to Berlin to study at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. There, I wrote my master thesis on “Aspects of Morse Theory for Constructible Sheaves” under supervision of Thomas Krämer.
