Biography
I am a University Assistant at the Institute of Architecture and Landscape at Technical University Graz, with a PhD in History and Theory from Bauhaus-University Weimar.
I’m interested in architecture within the complex environmental issues we are facing in light of the climate crisis.
I have a graduate degree in Architecture from the Technische Hochschule Nürnberg, where I taught classes in architectural theory, scientific writing, philosophy, and in the broader field of the environmental humanities, before moving to Graz in 2025.
ABOUT
Since September 2026, I’m working at Technical University Graz as a university assistant at the institute of architecture and landscape. I completed my PhD in 2026 at the Chair of Theory and History of Modern Architecture, Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism, at the Bauhaus-University Weimar in Germany. In my research, I focused on the discourse around the Post-Anthropocene and its consequences for architectural theory, drawing from a broad spectrum of ecocriticism, philosophy, and architectural theories to investigate realities that transcend human exceptionalism. Since October 2020, my work has focused on developing a feminist theory of the architectural body as a response to previous anthropocentric paradigms.
From 2021-2025, I was a Doctoral Scholar of the ‚Studienstiftung des Deutschen Volkes‘, the German Academic Scholarship Foundation, which provided academic and financial support for my research. Since 2022, I conducted research residencies at the University of Melbourne (Prof. Dr. Hélène Frichot) and Princeton University (Prof. Beatriz Colomina).
I am also a member of the Fieldstations association and co-organizer of the Educational Platform, an initiative dedicated to exploring architectural pedagogies in relation to the (Post-)Anthropocene.
Since completing my Master’s degree in Architecture in 2017, I have taught across all levels of architectural education at the Technical University of Nuremberg, leading courses in architectural theory, philosophy, and the environmental humanities. My teaching practice ‚Plural Realities,‘ sought to challenge object-based approaches to architecture, offering experimental perspectives grounded in post-anthropocentric thinking. Prior to my doctoral studies, I gained professional experience working in various architectural firms across Germany and as a freelance architect on independent projects.
