Her state exam thesis Klassenfahrten und Interkulturelles Lernen was awarded with the "Joseph-Schmitt-Sonderpreis 2007." She earned her Masters Degree in German from The Texas Tech University with a thesis about German Popliterature of the 1990s. She published her article "Die Beeinflussung der Jugend durch den nationalsozialistischen Sprachstil. Eine Analyse ausgewählter Liedbeispiele aus der Jungen Gefolgschaft" in the Zeitschrift für Literaturwissenschaft und Linguistik (2011). Besides teaching students of all ages, her interests include questions of identity, the re-unification, the artistic expression of the self and the other, as well as the connection between literature, philosophy, and music.
