Since July 2025, I have been working as a postdoctoral researcher at the Chair of Life Course Sociology at TU Dortmund University. Since May 2023, I am also co-PI of the project "Age-Wealth; Life Course, Wealth and Retirement Income in East and West Germany", which is based at the University of Bamberg. My research interests include the emergence of inequalities along the life course, as well as the comparative perspective on their socio-political embedding. A particular focus is on gender inequalities, pensions and wealth.
