Paderborn University
I am a PhD candidate in accounting and taxation at Paderborn University, Germany, and expect to complete my PhD in June 2027.
My research lies at the intersection of corporate transparency, taxation, and stakeholder behavior. I examine how corporate disclosures shape, and are shaped by, capital market participants, regulators, and the media, with a particular focus on tax-related information. My empirical work combines archival data with computational text analysis.
My teaching spans financial accounting, tax accounting, corporate taxation, and empirical accounting research.
