About

I am a post-doctoral researcher at the Faculty of Social Science, Institute of Sociology, University of Duisburg-Essen. My main research interests include topics on ethnic and social inequalities and the role of social relations/capital such as the parents, siblings or peers. I have expertise in the application of longitudinal analytical methods on survey data such as SOEP or Pairfam. I acquired funding from the German Research Foundation (DFG) for the project "The role of older siblings in the educational attainment of children with and without migration background". My work has been published in various well-recognized international journals such as the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies, Ethnicities, Advances in Life Course Research, European Sociological Review and previously in Research in Social Stratification and Mobility.
