About me

“Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough.”

—Richard P. Feynman

 

I'm a legal expert working at the intersection of human trafficking, child exploitation, human security, and criminal law. I'm driven by curiosity and a passion for making sense of complex challenges—and turning those insights into meaningful, constructive solutions.

My work often bridges disciplines. I collaborate with computer scientists to develop ethical AI tools that tackle issues like exploitation and trafficking, and I design and deliver training programmes that explore the relationship between law, crime, and technology.

I hold a PhD in Law and completed the Bar Vocational Course in the UK. I'm a board member of the Journal of Human Trafficking and a member of the Social Responsibility Alliance.

Alongside my research and consultancy work, I teach Space Law and Comparative Constitutional Law at the University of Amsterdam. I also mentor students at both the University of Amsterdam and the University of Warwick.

 

My professional portfolio covers expertise in:

  • National and international project management in a variety of areas such as law, transnational crimes, human trafficking, victim rights, responsible technology, sociotech and human security

  • Qualitative research with expertise in legal assessments and empirical methods such as focus groups, interviews, surveys
