Originally born in Flensburg, the northernmost town in Germany, I moved to Hamburg four years ago to follow my interests and study mathematics with a focus on algebraic methods in physics.
There, I started my PhD at the Collaborative Research Center 1624 in April 2024 under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Gleb Arutyunov, Prof. Dr. Jörg Teschner, and Prof. Dr. Paul Wedrich. I am part of Project C4, and the String Theory Group Arutyunov.
My research interests lie in geometric and quantum representation theory and applications at the interface of integrable models and gauge theory. My PhD specializes in Ruijsenaars–Schneider integrable models with spin and their relation to Coulomb branches, supersymmetric indices, and instanton moduli spaces.
In my free time, I enjoy learning languages, travelling, and hiking. I am currently learning Sorani Kurdish.
I am currently on the lookout for postdoc positions. A detailed CV can be found here. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
