Fascinated by big ships, I started to study mechanical engineering. During my bachelor's degree, I realized that I am very interested in the topic of structural dynamics and vibration technologies in general. To get closer to these type of subjects, I switched to applied mechanics in my Master's. After working on analysis techniques to understand the phenomenon of break squeal during my master thesis, I realized that there is still more to learn and to discover. I decided that I want to pursue a PhD. Having found a position at an institute dealing with turbomachinery, I developed my own research project based on my research interest and investigated vibrations of large rotating machines in operation, This got me to my current position, where I can finally put my knowledge to better use and help shape the future of wind turbines in earthquake-prone areas to extend the application area of wind energy globally.
