I am a University Assistant (tenure-track) at the Institute for Transport Studies, BOKU University. My work focuses on active mobility planning (walking and cycling), transport modelling, and urban analysis. I develop evidence‑based approaches that help cities design equitable, safe and resilient mobility systems, connecting research with practice across policy and planning.
I conduct research on pedestrian and cycling infrastructure, focusing on safety, accessibility, and user experience. My work includes evaluating street design, network connectivity, and interventions that support active mobility in urban environments.
I study mobility behaviour using different types of data, such as stated-preference survey. In my work, I analyse travel patterns, mode preferences, and quantify the impacts of mobility services and urban transformations using simulations.
I explore the relationships between urban form, transport networks, and mobility behaviour. My research examines how built environments interrelate with movement patterns and mode preferences, and how these interactions shape mobility in cities.
This is an overview of the projects I have worked on.
Autonomous busses and on-demand shuttles as part of the public transport system are analysed in this project.
In PRIMA, an experiment is conducted to see how commuters react to the introduction of a CO2 price for their trip.
In cycling experiments on simulators and in real life, the reaction of subjects to potentially stressful situations is analysed.
MATSim with its urban air mobility module is used to simulate air taxis in Vienna and Graz.
This project analyses the traffic impacts of the Barcelona Superblock concept in European cities.
The impact of different automated shuttle services in the rural area is evaluated in this project.
To measure the potential and impact of carpooling for commuting trips, a mesoscopic simulation is enabled.
Mesoscopic simulation is used a method to simulate scenarios for automated shuttle services and city tolls.
This project focuses on measuring the environmental impact of autonomous electric shuttles at macro and micro levels.
The replacement of bus services with carsharing-like microtransit services was investigated as part of this project.
The theory of Citizen Design Science and the application of its methods is key part of this project.
In the scope of this project, several urban challenges were presented to participants of an online design study.
The map-based online participation tool Qua-kit was tested in this project as part of a street festival.
In the scope of this project, I carried of my doctoral thesis on the impacts of electric carsharing systems.
This is an overview of my private projects.
