Before my independency, I was an assistant professor at the
Meteorological Institute of Munich at the Ludwig-Maximilians University
in
Munich and before that I worked at the DLR (German Centre for Air and
Space Travel) in Oberpfaffenhofen near Munich. At both locations, I
variance reduced Monte Carlo
simulations of radiative transfer in cloudy atmospheres and built lidar
simulators. My PhD
was performed at the Max-Planck-Institute for Astrophysics in Garching
and
at the Werner-Heisenberg-Institute in Munich, where I exploded
simulated Type II Supernovae. During my diploma thesis, I oscillated
sterile Neutrinos in the early Universe.
