I am a postdoc at Tuebingen University working in condensed matter theory.
Before, I obtained my PhD under the supervision of Piet Brouwer (Thesis: On disorder effects in topological insulators and semimetals, defended May 2016), and joined the Emmy-Noether group of Christoph Karrasch at Freie Universitaet Berlin for a first postdoc. In 2019-2021, I was a Leopoldina-Postdoc with Joel Moore at the University of California, Berkeley. After that, in 2021-2023 I worked as group leader and START-fellow of the Munich Center for Quantum Science and Technology (MCQST).
