Personal profile
Short presentation
I am a socio-technical researcher with a mixed background in Computer Science (PhD) and Anthropology (MS).
My research explores equity, disability and mental health (particularly related to neurodiversity) with an intersectional approach. I like to work with experimental, interventionist ethnographic approaches, mixed methods and co-creation - including making games.
I am currently employed as a postdoc at Medical Museion (Health Matters research project). We explore how encounters with objects from medical history can contribute to a deeper and more nuanced understanding of the intertwined relationship between our health, bodies, and environments.
If you are a student and would like to discuss supervision, feel free to get in touch.

I am a member of the Bevica Foundation Universal Design Hub and of the EASA Applied Anthropology Network.
