I grew up in Munich as a child with a vivid imagination and a strong interest in puzzles. After I had the heartbreaking realization that I could neither be a superhero nor the boss of my two brothers, I decided that science might be a worthy alternative. I especially liked the problem-solving nature of chemistry and decided to pursue these studies after high school. I finished my B.Sc., M.Sc., and doctorate (2024) at the Technical University in Munich with a focus on technical chemistry, polymer chemistry, and material science. During my research, I developed a strong desire to push sustainability and joined “Radical Dot”, a start-up for plastic recycling, as a scientist for “high-risk research”. However, after finishing my project and breaking down many different polymers, I was drawn back into creating them in a sustainable manner when I accepted the Postdoctoral position in Groningen (2025).
