Moreover, I am Senior Researcher at the Leibniz Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) in Mannheim, Lecturer at the University of Hohenheim as well as Research Fellow at the Institute of Labor Economics (IZA) in Bonn. Previously, I was team leader of the research group Digital Transformation at IZA as well as Data Scientist in the Analytics division of REWE Group.

My research interests include:

• data science and machine learning with big data.

My research has been published in leading international journals such as Journal of the European Economic Association or Journal of Public Economics.

I have conducted several policy consulting projects for leading institutions such as the OECD, European Commission or various Federal Ministries in Germany and Luxembourg and served as an expert for the Enquete Commission "Artificial Intelligence" of the German Bundestag,
