Curriculum Vitæ
I was born in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany, in 1985. I spent most of my youth in Kenzingen, where I attended primary and secondary school. After graduating from Gymnasium Kenzingen in 2005, I travelled to Australia and China, where I worked in various jobs over the course of a year.
In 2006, I started studying physics at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.
During my studies, I was fortunate to spend a year at Princeton University with a stipend from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).
After this experience, I returned to Karlsruhe to complete my studies with a Diploma thesis on “Squeezed Light Emitting Diodes”, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Jörg Schmalian in 2012.
In 2013, I joined the group of Prof. Dr. Carlo Beenakker as a PhD student at Instituut-Lorentz, Leiden University. During my time in Leiden, I was teaching assistant for the quantum theory class. I participated in several schools and conferences, and presented my work in The Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, Poland, Norway, and the USA.
