General
PSYCHOLOGY
She wrote her university thesis on coping with pressure and would like to become a sports psychologist once she retires from the sport. "I can transfer a lot of the foundations from my studies to sports and connect the dots, which is really helpful. My bachelor thesis [was] about choking under pressure, or failing to cope with a public pressure situation, something each athlete and coach is familiar with. Knowing the theory behind sports phenoms like these helps me get a better understanding of them and optimise them in case of emergency." (Facebook page, 13 Sep 2020; thetennisisland.com, 11 Mar 2016; wtatennis.com, 01 Jan 2016)

COACHING BADGE
In 2013 she earned a tennis coaching licence [grade A] with the German Tennis Federation [DTB]. (laurasiegemund.com, 05 Oct 2020; viacor.de, 01 Jan 2018)
