About

I have worked as a junior researcher at the University of Basel (Social Research and Methodology group) since 2013 and work on a SNSF (Swiss National Science Foundation) project on insecurity in early working life with a particular focus on the Swiss labour market. I graduated in sociology and educational sciences (MA) at the University of Basel in 2013 and pursued my undergraduate studies (BA) in social work and social policy at the University of Fribourg i.Ü. Furthermore I upgraded my quantitative research skills by attending several methodological summer schools and further courses.
