Biography

I am a PhD candidate and research assistant at the personality psychology and psychological assessment lab at the University of Leipzig. I’m doing research on measurement standardisation and related fun stuff with Ruben Arslan, Malte Elson, and Ian Hussey. I’ve also been associated with the METRICS for about 2 years and have been/am involved in three projects there, with one of them soon coming to fruition.

I spend most of my free time nowadays cooking and baking, cycling, strolling, and pianoing.
