I’m a PhD Researcher at the University of Mannheim’s Graduate School of Economic and Social Sciences.

I hold an M.A. in Political Science from the University of Mannheim, where I focused on quantitative methods and political behaviour, and a B.A. in Philosophy from the University of Tübingen.

My main fields of research lie within political behaviour and quantitative methods, with a focus on survey methodology and measurement. I am particularly interested in how political events influence not only people’s political attitudes and behaviour but also their responses in surveys, which can lead to bias in the measurement of political concepts. I approach these methodological questions through substantive research in the areas of public opinion and electoral behaviour, aiming to better understand how context shapes both political preferences and the tools we use to study them.

Throughout the past years, I have been working and teaching at the Chair of Political Science, Political Psychology at the University of Mannheim as well as the Mannheim Centre for European Social Research. Here, I was member of the project team of the German Longitudinal Election Study Panel. In early 2025, I was a visiting researcher at the University of Barcelona. Previously, I held positions at the Chair of Quantitative Methods in the Social Scienes at the University of Mannheim, the Swiss Environmental Panel at ETH Zurich and was a member of the team behind zweitstimme.org, a forecasting project for German federal elections.
