About me

I am a Senior Haskell Developer at Wire.

Until February 2021, I was a postdoc at the Logic Group in TU Darmstadt, working on homotopy type theory and category theory. Previously, I was a postdoc at the University of Nottingham, where I also got my PhD under the supervision of Venanzio Capretta.
