Welcome to my webpage. I am a postdoc in the working group of Prof. Chris Wendl at the Humboldt University Berlin.
From September 2014 till July 2018 I was a member of the working group of Prof. Hansjörg Geiges at the University of Cologne where I graduated in January 2017 about "Legendrian knots in surgery diagrams and the knot complement problem".
The fields of my research include low-dimensional topology, contact geometry, symplectic topology and their interactions.
