Hello!

I am an assistant professor of finance at the University of Mannheim.

My research focuses on technological innovations in modern financial markets and the challenges they induce. Some buzzwords that appear in my research are: high-frequency trading, cryptocurrencies, liquidity, market microstructure, blockchains, regulation, price efficiency, tokenization, ...

While my teaching focuses on financial technology and the empirical analysis of financial markets, I also broadly teach in the areas of investment management and corporate finance. I currently teach at the University of Mannheim, at Mannheim Business School, and at the Frankfurt School of Finance and Management.
