About
I am a researcher at the Institute for Water and Environment (IWU) of Karlsruhe Institute for Technology (KIT), Germany. I am an Environmental Engineer by training, with a strong background in hydro- and morphodynamic model development. During my PhD studies I focused on the development of assessment and modelling tools for hydro- and thermopeaking alterations in rivers. My current research focuses on the development of numerical models for environmental problems with specific focus on river eco-hydraulics such as fine sediment, pollutant and thermal transport in rivers. I am member of the scientific board in the software project BASEMENT, member of the Leadership Team of Ecohydraulics (IAHR technical committee) and of the Early Career on Ecohydraulics Network (ECoENet).
