Assistant Professor
University of Zurich
Department of Sociology
Andreasstrasse 15
CH-8050 Zürich
Ciao!

​I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Zurich, a guest researcher at Freie Universität Berlin’s Institute of Sociology, and a research affiliate of the Immigration Policy Lab at ETH Zurich. I also hold an SNSF Starting Grant. Previously, I served as a Postdoctoral Researcher at Freie Universität Berlin and the University of Göttingen—where I was also a Visiting Professor—and worked at the German Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF). I received my PhD from the Graduate School of Economic and Social Sciences at the University of Mannheim and was a visiting scholar at both the Berlin Social Science Center (WZB) and the Department of Methodology at the London School of Economics (LSE). During my doctoral studies, I worked at the Chair for Sociological Methodology at the University of Mannheim as well as at the University of Zurich’s Department of Political Science.

My research examines how migration policy can either foster or hinder integration in host countries—and how it may trigger political backlash—by combining qualitative and quantitative individual-level data with large-scale registry data. I integrate insights from political science and sociology and employ
​(quasi-)experimental research designs.
