She holds a Ph.D. in Social Anthropology from the Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg and was a Ph.D. Candidate at the Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology in Halle. Her primary research goals are directed at understanding how people and institutions are accomplishing social phenomena like accountability, justice, equality and redistribution.
