I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for Labor and Demographic Economics at the ifo Institute and a member of the the Junior Faculty at LMU Munich. I obtained my PhD from the Vienna University of Economics and Business in January 2024.

My research interests are in labor economics and gender economics. My current projects focus on workplace breastfeeding and social norms.
