I obtained my BSc degree in International Field Geosciences from Potsdam University in Germany and the University of Montana in the USA. In 2017, I received my MSc degree in Geosciences at Potsdam University. During my BSc and MSc studies, I was involved in variety of topics related to sedimentology, hyperspectral imaging, petroleum geology, geochemistry, remote sensing, and 3D geological subsurface modelling. I spent several years working as a research assistant at the Institute of Earth and Environmental Science at the Potsdam University as well as at the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ). After completion of my MSc study, I joined DEA Deutsche Erdöl AG working as an Application Analyst for Geo Applications.

In 2020, I began my PhD at the Institute of Geo-Hydroinformatics at 
Hamburg University of Technology. My doctoral research investigates the 
interactions between climate variability and hydrological systems, with 
a focus on the impacts of sea level rise, wetland adaptation, and 
evaporation dynamics in large reservoirs. By integrating remote sensing, 
physically based modelling, and big data analytics, my work aims to 
quantify how climatic and anthropogenic drivers influence water systems 
across different spatial and temporal scales. The research contributes 
to a better understanding of water-related climate vulnerabilities and 
supports the development of adaptive strategies for sustainable water 
management.

I am the coordinator of the CampusLab on Global Soil Health, Water and Climate at Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH), a ~1000 m² living laboratory that connects research, education, and public engagement. Operated by the Institute of Geo-Hydroinformatics in collaboration with other TUHH institutes, the CampusLab investigates soil processes, land–atmosphere interactions, and climate-relevant parameters using advanced sensor networks, AI-based data analysis, and immersive VR/AR visualization. It provides hands-on training for students, outreach activities for schools and the public, and serves as a platform for interdisciplinary research on sustainable soil and water management in a changing climate.
