About me
On various occasions, AGYA has offered me the opportunity to explore the potential for collaboration between the humanities and the arts, allowing me to overcome certain limits and conventions of academic work to explore my creative potential and connect with a broader audience at the interface of science and society.

My advice to future AGYA members
Take advantage of the opportunities for travel and mobility offered by AGYA. Acquaint yourself with the working conditions of young scholars in your partner countries. Get inspired by interdisciplinary exchange. Appreciate the fact that the AGYA office team lends fantastic support in organizing conferences.
On a personal note
Must read in my discipline:
Jenseits des Eurozentrismus edited by Sebastian Conrad & Shalini Randeria
Favourite novel:
The Memoirs of Emily Ruete, which counters stereotypes about the ‘Orient’ held in nineteenth-century Germany.
