I am a legal scholar and teach at Chemnitz University of Technology, where I am a Full Professor of Public Law, especially Public Economic Law.

My research analyzes German, European, and international public law from a theory-oriented, multi-level, and interdisciplinary perspective. I am particularly interested in the legal structures of the European and international economic order, European constitutional and institutional law, the protection of fundamental and human rights, and, more broadly, the intersection of law and institutions.

I studied law and political science at Freie Universität Berlin, Panthéon-Sorbonne (Paris I), and New York University School of Law, and conducted research at Harvard, Yale, New York University, and the European University Institute in Florence.

In 2019, I earned my doctorate at Freie Universität Berlin with a dissertation on the role of constitutional adjudication in supranational multilevel structures and transnational constitutional court networks. In 2025, I completed my habilitation at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg with a study on forms of fundamental and human rights review beyond the courts.

My writings have been published, among others, by Oxford University Press and in journals such as the American Journal of International Law, the European Journal of International Law, the International Journal of Constitutional Law, the Common Market Law Review, Archiv des öffentlichen Rechts, and Der Staat.
