Biography

I am a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in European Institutions, Politics and Policy at UCL. Prior to joining, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden. Between 2019 and 2021, I worked as a political advisor in the European Parliament. I obtained my PhD at KU Leuven in Belgium.

Research

Most of my research is focused on the interaction of law and politics in the European Union, both in the judicial and the legislative arena. I am particularly interested in the decision-making of the Court of Justice of the European Union in the presence of institutional and political constraints. I also maintain an interest in judicial politics more generally, and in regional and domestic politics in Central and Eastern Europe.
