She earned a PhD in psychology at the University of Mannheim in the research training group Statistical Modeling in Psychology (SMiP) in December 2021. From 2013 to 2018, she studied psychology at the University of Constance. Her research interests include psychometrics, especially the modelling of forced-choice and process data, as well as machine learning for the prediction of interventions and for successful replications.
