Currently, I am a Postdoc University Assistant at the KGRC, University of Vienna. My main interests are in combinatorial set theory, structure of the real line and forcing. Prior to my current position, I was a FWF-Lise-Meitner Project Leader (M1365-N13) . In June 2017 I was awarded the FWF 2017 START Prize for my project Infinite combinatorics and definability .
