Research
My research focuses on the development, implementation, and application of statistical models for stochastic processes. I am particularly interested in hidden Markov models (HMMs), Markov-switching regression models, and stochastic differential equations (SDEs) as well as their application in ecology (animal movement modelling) and economics (stock market modelling).

Teaching
In the winter term 2023-2024, I am teaching generalised linear models (GLMs). In addition, I am available for supervising B.Sc. and M.Sc. theses within statistical modelling.
