Former Staff Member of the Research Department
Migration, Integration, Transnationalization

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the unit of Migration, Integration and Transnationalization at WZB. I work with Merlin Schaeffer on the project 'The association between actual and perceived discrimination' (APAX).

In February 2021, I obtained my PhD in Sociology at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. In my dissertation, I studied trust and discrimination in the peer-to-peer platform economy. I specifically looked at the role of reputation systems.
