About Me
I am Professor of Quantitative Methods in Economics and Finance at Saarland University. My main research interest is empirical asset pricing.

In its December 2024 issue, Wirtschaftswoche magazine ranked me 24th among the best business economist researchers under the age of 40 and 66th among the best business economist researchers of all ages in German-speaking countries for the years 2020-2024.
