Short CV


I studied mathematics at Technische Universität Ilmenau from 2009 to 2014. I obtained my PhD from the University of Birmingham in 2018, under the supervision of Daniela Kühn and Deryk Osthus. My dissertation `Decompositions of Graphs and Hypergraphs' was the runner-up for the Richard-Rado-Preis 2018. I continued to be a Research Fellow (postdoc) in Birmingham, before joining ETH Zürich in 2019. There, I was a Junior Fellow in the Institute for Theoretical Studies, and a member of the Combinatorics Research Group of Benny Sudakov. Since 1 September 2022, I hold a tenure-track professorship at the University of Passau.
