My academic interests center on the historical and contemporary relationships between different religious traditions and the ways in which these are shaped by social, cultural, and political contexts.
Since 2025, I have been working as a student assistant in the research project Decolonizing Postcolonialism, which examines the intertwined history of politics, church, and theology during the Namibian freedom struggle. In 2026, I joined the Biblia Arabica project as a student assistant, focusing primarily on project and data management. The project provides an opportunity to further engage with the historical interactions between Jewish, Christian, and Muslim traditions.
