Biography
After undergraduate studies at the University of Greifswald (Germany) and postgraduate studies at the Free University Berlin (Germany), the Technical University Berlin (Germany), the University of Auckland (New Zealand), Universiteit Utrecht (The Netherlands), and Linköpings Universitet (Sweden), I obtained my doctorate in political philosophy from the University of Warwick. During my PhD studies, I spent 1 ½ years as a visiting research student at the University of Arizona (USA). Subsequently, I spent a year as Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science of the Central European University (Hungary) and a bit more than 2 years as Postdoctoral Researcher at the Institute for Political Science of the Goethe University Frankfurt (Germany) before starting my post as Lecturer/Assistant Professor in Philosophy at the University of Birmingham in 2016.
