I'm a postoc in the group of Yannic Maus at the TU Graz. I completed my PhD under Sebastian Forster at the University of Salzburg. I obtained my master's degree in Mathematics from the University of Amsterdam, under supervision of Viresh Patel. You can find my master's thesis here.

Our paper "Parallel Minimum Cost Flow in Near-Linear Work and Square Root Depth for Dense Instances" is accepted to SPAA 2025.
I joined Yannic Maus' group at the Institute of Algorithms and Theory in Graz in December 2024.
I received my PhD in November 2024.
Our paper "Tree-Packing Revisited: Faster Fully Dynamic Min-Cut and Arboricity" is accepted to SODA 2025.
I receieved the Young Investigators Award 2023 for up-coming researchers at the University of Salzburg.
The biggest problem we will face in our lifetime might be the climate crisis. It is my opinion that everyone, but especially all scientists, have a role to play in creating a more sustainable way of living. As an individual researcher, this can include travelling by train as much as possible, adjusting eating habits to a vegetarian/vegan diet, combining multiple trips into one when feasible, and use modern tools for global collaborations. Please consider supporting the Theoretical Computer Scientists for Future initiative.
