I am a PostDoc at Aarhus University and a former PhD student in Tobias Nipkow's group at the Technical University of Munich. My research interests span various areas of formal methods. A big theme in my research is to increase the trustworthiness of model checkers with the help of proof assistants (usually Isabelle/HOL).

08.02.2021MSCA proposal for the project "Certywhere" accepted!

In the project, which was submitted with Jaco van de Pol, I aim towards the vision of "Certification Everywhere" (in model checking): I want to develop theory and verified certifiers for a large range of model checking techniques and formalisms, including partial-order reduction, symbolic model checking, and timed automata.

I now work in the Logic and Semantics group under the supervision of Jaco van de Pol. Due to the pandemic you cannot find me in Aarhus yet.
