My M.Sc. research was related to the Libertarian Free Cities in a global studies focus. I also have examined how cultural and national identities are constructed through conflicting collective memories in a political and cultural environment defined by historically changing borders and discourses in Guinea-Bissau and India.

After my MA from Leipzig University, I have engaged various areas of research. I write and publish on urban history and city-building from a Global Studies perspective. Currently I am living in Guatemala.
