About Me

I am a research associate in the Survey Data Curation Department at GESIS – Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences and a PhD student at the University of Mannheim. My research focuses on the effects of spatial disparities on political attitudes and party preferences, subjective perceptions of living conditions and place-based resentments, as well as methodological questions related to spatial linking of survey data.

After working as a data curator for the German Longitudinal Election Study (GLES), I joined the Competence Center for Data Quality in the Social Sciences (KODAQS) in November 2023. For the KODAQS Academy, I coordinate and create learning content on indicators and metrics to assess data quality. Additionally, I contribute to our open-source platform, the KODAQS Toolbox, where I develop new tools to systematically assess errors that occur when linking survey data with other data sources

Current Projects
Place, Perception, and Politics. A Geospatial Analysis of Deprivation and Discontent

My dissertation explores the relationship between place and political discontent, arguing that both objective spatial disparities and subjective perceptions of deprivation interact to shape political attitudes, with a focus on political trust and radical-right party support in Germany.
