I am excited to join the ES I in spring 2023 to teach courses in English literary and cultural studies and assist Prof. Gruß with her research. Also, I am a PhD student at the University of Freiburg, where I completed a teaching degree in English and Spanish Philology, and have spent semesters abroad at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and University College Dublin.

My PhD project combines English literary and cultural studies with performance and audience studies as I investigate how the affective experience shape spectators' reception of contemporary theatre and performance. With my research I want to prioritize diverse voices from the audience over the often elitist opinions of contemporary criticism.

In my free time I like to skate and see and make theatre. The latter has led me to be a part of the maniACTs, the English department student drama group at Uni Freiburg, for many years and I was able to learn about acting, directing and managing PR.
