Trained at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in a physics-backed geophysics program, my training was focused on seismic and seismological aspects. Nevertheless, I was able to pursue my curiosity about other methods, such as magnetometry, acoustics, and gravimetry in my final thesis. For my PhD, I dived into optical technology, namely ring laser gyroscopes, to access the utilize the additional information provided by seismic gradients.

Research Interests
Harnessing the potential of gradiometry in the seismic wavefield for enhanced insights into the full seismic wavefield. Thus, improve and utilize new instrumentation (e.g. ring laser, fiber optic gyroscopes, DAS,..) for geophysical observations and analyses.
