Biography
My research focuses on the political implications of podcasting, exploring how political narratives travel across digital audio ecosystems. Originally from Germany, I hold a BA in Political Science from Goethe University Frankfurt, where my honours thesis examined the relationship between political narratives and polarization in US politics. I later moved into journalism, where podcasting was my first beat. Alongside my studies at UCalgary, I’m co-authoring a POLITICO newsletter unpacking US politics for a German audience.
