Welcome!
I am a postdoctoral researcher at the German Institute of Global and Area Studies (GIGA) in Hamburg.
My research lies at the intersection of authoritarian politics, state repression, civil wars, and civil-military relations. I am particularly interested in the inner workings of coercive institutions and how organizational dynamics influence empirical patterns of state violence.
I received a PhD from the Graduate School of Economic and Social Sciences at the University of Mannheim. During and after my doctoral studies I was working in the ERC funded Project Repression and the Escalation of Political Violence (RATE), which is based at the Chair for Political Science IV at the University of Mannheim.
My research has been published in the Journal of Peace Research and has been awarded the NEPS Stuart A. Bremer Award, the ISA Dina Zinnes Award, and the Young Scholar Award of the Graduate School of Economic and Social Sciences at the University of Mannheim.
