I am a Senior Research Fellow (postdoc) at Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition in Munich. My research interests combine the fields of innovation economics and corporate finance, in particular,  entrepreneurial finance, intellectual property rights (e.g., IP-backed loans), innovation and science policy. Furthermore, I am a lecturer in Finance at Goethe Business School in Frankfurt. I obtained my Ph.D. in Economics from Goethe University Frankfurt (Management and Microeconomics Department) for my dissertation On the Economics of Innovation and Corporate Finance (summa cum laude). I had research visits at Questrom School of Business, Boston University (2023), the Norwegian School of Economics (2022), the Economics Department of NYU Stern School of Business (2019), Deutsche Bundesbank (2017), and Hamburg Institute of International Economics (2014). Since 2023, I have been active in the research network of the Innovation Growth Lab.
