As a kid, I had a habit of reading way too many fantasy books. Some twenty years later, I quote Terry Pratchett in every other sentence and love telling stories. I also love hearing others tell stories, and helping to craft the best version of them.
Along the way, I obtained a PhD in mathematics in Münster, Germany. I didn’t learn much German (es tut mir leid), but I found out that my favourite stories often involve numbers and data. I am mostly interested in the ways mathematics and society interact, civil rights, and all sorts of things in between.
I like to tell my stories in many ways. I write articles for publications and magazines, podcast episodes, and social media content. There is a special place in my heart for all sorts of informal education and workshops, especially with kids and teachers.
On A Tangent: Voices of Mathematics Münster was my main project as part of the Science Communication Team of the Cluster of Excellence “Mathematics Münster”. I hosted and produced seven episodes, featuring interviews of early career mathematicians working at the Cluster.
