I am an interdisciplinary PhD researcher in Computer Science at the Centre for Research into Information, Surveillance and Privacy (CRISP), University of St Andrews. My supervisors are Dr. Tristan Henderson and Professor Kirstie Ball. I am interested in the legal and technological applications in data protection, privacy, and data ethics, where my current research aims to create a socio-technical data commons framework that helps data subjects protect their personal data under existing data protection, privacy, and information regulations. My PhD is generously funded by the University of St Andrews St Leonard's Interdisciplinary Scholarship.
I am also a Research Fellow at the Open Data Institute, focusing on data protection and governance in online teaching, learning analytics, and educational technology. Currently, I am participating in the “Digital Ethics in Times of Crisis: Covid-19 and Access to Education and Learning Spaces” Research Sprint hosted by the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University in collaboration with the Global Network of Internet & Society Centers.
I am an active speaker and enjoy communicating data protection and privacy-related topics to both academic and non-academic audiences. If you or your organisation may be interested in hosting an event on the topics below, please get in touch!
