She completed both her bachelor\u2019s degree in European and International Law, with a Technology Law specialization and master\u2019s degree in Technology and Innovations Law at the University of Groningen. Priorly to joining IViR she was part of a digital policy consulting organization in Brussels, aiding the Directorate General for Communications Networks, Content and Technology (DG Connect) of the European Commission. During this time, she aided with the advancement of the Cloud and AI Development Act and the drafting of provisions for the promotion of sustainable data centers in the EU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She has also done research within various academic and NGO policy advisory groups, including the Berlin-based \u201cFemAI\u201d, where she focused on the development of fairness metrics for de-biasing Machine Learning and AI systems. Her research interests include privacy, data protection, digital fundamental rights, and more recently the exploration of cyber-feminist intersectional methodologies within the realm of harmful AI-generated content online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
