Education
PhD Student in Physics
i. Physikalisches Institut, Universitat zu Koln, Cologne, Germany since Nov. 2014
Supervision committee: Prof. Dr. Peter Schilke,
Dr. Alvaro Sanchez Monge, Prof. Dr. Stefanie Walch-Gassner,
Prof. Dr. Jurgen Stutzki.
PhD project in Astrophysics focused on the imaging and
joint deconvolution of interferometic & single dish
molecular line data of Orion A,
comparison of molecular filament properties to those of dust,
comparison of observed properties to those in numerical simulations
and analysis of various complementary data.

Master of Science in Astrophysics

Argelander Institut for Astronomy, Universitat Bonn, Bonn, Germany Sep. 2014
Supervisors: Prof. Dr. Peter Schilke (Koln)
and Prof. Dr. Frank Bertoldi (Bonn). Master thesis work
titled Filaments in the Orion A Molecular Cloud.
The project consisted of data reduction
and automated method developments for identifying filament properties
and was graded 1.0 (Excellent).

Visiting student
Cahill Center for Astronomy and Astrophysics,
California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, USA
Supervisor: Dr. John Carpenter April 2014
A visit to train for interferometric data reduction and observations.

Intern student
i. Physikalisches Institut, Universitat zu Koln, Cologne, Germany
Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Peter Schilke Dec. 2013
Internship aimed at writing an ALMA Cycle-1 proposal.

Ankara Universitesi, Astronomi ve Uzay Bilimleri Bolumu, Ankara, Turkey Feb. 2012

Intern student
Angstromlaboratoriet, Uppsala Universitet, Uppsala, Sweden
Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Nils Bergvall Sep. 2012
A three week internship project aimed at analysing a set of
ESO 2.2m telescope data towards a starburst galaxy, Haro11,
for a possible detection of an ejected supermassive blackhole.
