I am a lecturer and researcher in mathematical logic. My research interests are in set theory, specifically the structure of the real line, regularity properties of sets of reals, descriptive set theory and forcing, as well as the generalized real numbers and generalized Baire spaces. I obtained my PhD at the University of Amsterdam in 2012, under the supervision of Prof. Benedikt Löwe and prof. Jörg Brendle, and my Habilitation at Hamburg University in 2018.

My current affiliations are:

• Lecturer at the Amsterdam University College.


• Privatdozent at Hamburg University, in the Mathematical Logic group headed by Benedikt Löwe.


• Guest researcher at the ILLC, University of Amsterdam.

Prior to that, I was a Marie Sklodowska-Curie research fellow at Hamburg University and a postdoctoral researcher at the Kurt Gödel Research Center for Mathematical Logic at the University of Vienna, headed by Prof. Sy David Friedman.

My complete CV can be found here.
