About
Since October 2024, I am a postdoc at the Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf. I am a postdoctoral researcher working in algebraic geometry and algebraic topology and my research interests include algebraic K-theory, Hermitian K-theory and motivic homotopy theory. My work particularly focuses on applications of motivic homotopy theory to questions in algebraic geometry and commutative algebra.
Besides mathematics, I have strong interests in music, film, literature, comedy, sports and philosophy. In my free time I like to play the piano or the guitar, try international food, play soccer and go hiking.
