I am research assisstant and PhD student at the University of Trier and member of the software engineering group of Stephan Diehl. I graduated in Computer Science at the University of Trier in 2009. My general research interests are primarily empirical software engineering, software visualization, and graph drawing. The particular focus of my work is on analyzing multi-dimensional code couplings in software system.
