I am a mathematician working as a researcher and software developer at German Aerospace Center (DLR) at the Institute of Software Methods for Product Virtualisation. Currently, I am working on the development of a CFD software.

I had my PhD in mathematics at TU Dresden. My advisor was Mario Kummer. Here is my PhD thesis.

Other Activities:

I am one of the maintainers of the webpage of the Gender, Diversity and Sustainability group partition of DMV.

I could not help but draw this illustration to add it to my thesis and start a petition. We are in 2024, and the German Mathematical Society “Deutsche Mathematiker-Vereinigung” keeps using a gender exclusive name, “Mathematiker” (masculine plural) instead of “Mathematiker*inen” (gender inclusive plural). I do not know if the petition will make a change, but I will at least be at peace about taking an individual step toward it. Here is the link for signing the petition.
