I am a PhD student in the group of Prof. Brandt since February 2020. Before that, I studied Informatics at TUM, where I received my Bachelor's degree in 2018 and my Master's degree in 2020. My research focuses on axiomatic aspects of collective decision making, in particular on how to avoid manipulability in elections.
I graduated in March 2024, and moved to UNSW Sydney to work as a postdoctoral fellow with Haris Aziz. You find my new webpage here.
