I am currently a Geopyhsics PhD candidate at the Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics (IGPP), a division of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), part of UC San Diego (UCSD). In 2023, I completed the International Masters Programme in Geophysics offered by LMU and TUM in Munich, Germany. My current focus lies on computational seismology and tsunami genesis caused by coseismic seafloor displacement. I combined both of these fields in my MSc Thesis about the 2020 Mw 7.0 Samos earthquake and tsunami and in my BSc Thesis. The latter covered earthquake-tsunami modeling for a strike-slip fault system in North Iceland, following a physics-based approach and using high performance computing. Extended results were presented at the virtual EGU General Assembly 2021, on-site at EGU GA 2022, as well as at NorthQuake 2022. Please check the publications/conferences tab for more information. I've been a TA for the EarthScope (formerly IRIS) Seismology Skill Building Workshop in the summer of 2023. In addition to academia, I gained first experience in the reinsurance industry and supported the Cat Risk Management Team (R&D, GIS and Portfolio Analytics) at Allianz SE Reinsurance.
