I am a Professor of Computer Science Education at the Zurich University of Teacher Education (PHZH), Switzerland and conduct research at the Center for Education and Digital Transformation, with a focus on “Computing Skills in Education” as one of its key research areas. Additionally, I am affiliated with the Center for Media Education and Informatics, where I explore innovative approaches to digital and computer science education.

Previously, I was a visiting professor for Computer Science Education at the University of Hildesheim (Germany) and obtained my PhD in 2018 at the Institute for Software Development at Graz University of Technology (Austria).

My research focuses on gender-sensitive computer science, AI didactics, computational thinking, making, game design, and open educational resources (OER). A key aspect of my work is promoting girls and women in computer science and developing inclusive, gender-sensitive teaching concepts. I design didactic approaches that enable interdisciplinary, practice-oriented, and inclusive access to computer science education.
