Background: “I studied Medicine at the Charité Berlin and the Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich. After graduation in 2012, I started training in psychiatry with a 12 months placement in forensic psychiatry. After this, I started my speciality training for Neurology which I have finished in 2018 and became a Neurology consultant in Germany in 2019.

In March 2018, I moved to London to work on a research project on neurodegenerative diseases at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, London. During that time, I also joined Superdrug Online Doctor and am currently the interim clinical lead for Germany.

Besides my medical career and interests, I have a never-ending thirst for knowledge and try to educate myself whenever I can, about history, cultural studies, politics and social sciences. I further enjoy arts and music and am adamant about staying physically active.”
