A LITTLE ABOUT ME

My Story

Born in Düsseldorf in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, and raised in Ratingen nearby, I moved to Munich for my Bachelor's and Master's degree in physics, which I received at LMU Munich.My Bachelor's thesis concerned itself with simulations of turbulence in the ISM and the viability of different schemes; in my Master's thesis I looked for planes of satellites galaxies in large-scale cosmological simulations, specifically in Magneticum. Both thesis were done at the University Observatory in Munich, under the supervision of PD Dr Klaus Dolag. In 2019, I relocated to London to start my PhD studies with Prof Richard Ellis at UCL as a new member to his "First Light" project.
