As an educational innovator I improve the programme for Physics & Astronomy, e.g. by supporting our teachers in designing their courses and by giving workshops about study skills for our students. I also like to investigate the effects of the improvements I work on. Whenever I have the time, I'm still involved in research about the application of machine learning in particle physics, which is a continuation of my research project during my PhD.

I am incredibly passionate about outreach; whether it be about the university, about the study programme or about physics in general. In my spare time I therefore try to do as much outreach as possible, e.g. on Youtube under the name Fundamentally Explained (a channel on which I try to make particle physics as accessible as I can).
