About me
I am a physiotherapist from Germany with a passion for the promotion of physical activity. Like most physiotherapists, I think moving is fun, and I engage in many different sports myself and enjoy being outdoors. My professional interests span both clinical practice and academia, where there is a lot to learn about health promotion from the individual to the public level.
Research
My research focuses on the prevention of non-communicable diseases. I investigate various personal and lifestyle factors linked to the development and prevalence of these diseases. As part of my PhD studies, I am also evaluating the feasibility of a digital service designed to promote healthy lifestyle behaviours.
