I am currently a research associate at the Department of Economic and Social History at the University of Göttingen. I am writing a book with the working title "Riga as a Global Port City. From Imperial Russia’s Most Successful Trading Hub to Latvia’s First Center of Trade.” From 12/2021 to 06/2023 I was a Feodor Lynen Research Fellow funded by the Humboldt Foundation at the University of Latvia in Riga. I have also completed a project at the University of Göttingen, which explored Baltic Sea trade networks and the rise of Riga as Imperial Russia's port with the highest sales volume, using historical GIS (Geographic Information Systems). In 2011, I defended my PhD at the University of Heidelberg with a dissertation on memory politics in post-Soviet Latvia.
