I am an assistant professor (non-tenure track) at the Department of Economics at LMU Munich. I graduated with a PhD in economics from the Berlin School of Economics and Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin in 2021.
My research is at the intersection of urban, regional, health and historical economics. I have an empirical focus and I love working with historical spatial data. My current work focuses on the economic consequences of 19th-century epidemic diseases. Learn about my research here.
I teach courses in economic history, urban economics, economic geography and spatial data science. My recent courses focus on graduate-level European economic history and urban economics.
Outside academia, I am co-organizer of the annual AGORA Summer School in Philosophy, Politics and Economics.
