I hold Masters from the London School of Economics and Royal Holloway and have spent more than two years in Africa and the Middle East. My professional experiences include traineeships and part time jobs at the European Commission, KPMG, the German Chamber of Commerce in Dubai as well as Airbus Defence and Space. In addition to my academic work, I am writing for various media outlets including SPIEGEL ONLINE, ZEIT ONLINE, The European, openDemocracy, The Huffington Post UK, European Geostrategy, Your Middle East and The Conversation. A list of my published work can be found here. Moreover, I co-founded and co-edited FactCheckEU.org, a watchdog that monitored European politicans’ statements on EU affairs from 02/2014 to 05/2015.
