I'm currently a PhD candidate in epidemiology and public health at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. My research is on violence risk assessments and intimate partner violence.

As part of the Research Unit Public Health Evaluations, I investigate how healthcare systems can better identify and respond to intimate partner violence. My work focuses on mapping support pathways and generating evidence to inform domestic violence policy and strengthen support mechanisms for victims.

I also hold a Master’s degree in Public Policy from the Hertie School, where I met my co-founder. Together we launched  [Frontline](https://frontline100.com/), a social startup focused on developing digital solutions to help detect and respond to domestic abuse sooner.

Alongside my research, I engage in science communication and frequently speak and participate in panel discussions on domestic violence prevention, advocating for stronger policies to counter domestic violence.
