About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm an uncomplicated, open-minded, and tollerant person, always keen on getting to know new people and trying out new things.
Currently I'm working in Chemical Biology at Yale University and I really enjoy contributing to this interesting field of research.
I moved from Germany to the US in January 2014 and really enjoy my time here.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is fun, so live!
Always stay optimistic!
