About me
I am an Emily Erskine Endowment Fund Postdoctoral Researcher Fellow at the Einstein Institute of Mathematics of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem working with Ari Shnidman. From September 2023, I will be the inaugural Edixhoven Postdoctoral Fellow at the Mathematical Institute of Leiden University. I was born in Denmark and grew up in France.

Research interests
My interests lie in algebraic number theory and arithmetic geometry
with a special emphasis on modular forms, elliptic curves, algebraic cycles
and special values of L-functions.
I am also interested in rational points on higher genus curves.
