What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to apply my research skills in a dynamic environment focused on sustainability and innovation.

I am a dedicated analytical and environmental chemist, just finished my doctoral studies at the University of Tübingen. My research focused on the Mn-driven oxidation of aminopolyphosphonates (APPs) and the development of quantification methods for these compounds and their transformation products. With a strong academic background in chemistry and business chemistry, I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to contribute to sustainable practices in the chemical industry.

Throughout my academic journey, I have gained valuable experience as a research assistant at the Wuppertal Institute for Climate, Environment & Energy, where I conducted meta-analyses to explore future energy and industry systems. Additionally, my internship at Covestro AG allowed me to support environmental reporting initiatives and implement HSEQ measures, further enhancing my project management and communication skills. I am committed to advancing knowledge in environmental chemistry and contributing to innovative solutions for a sustainable future.
