I am a researcher with expertise in Digital Heritage, Digital Culture and New Media Art. My practice-based approach often involves design-led methodologies and curatorship.
I am a Research Associate on the EU-funded project Critical Heritages (CoHERE): performing and representing identities in Europe in which I investigate the role of digitally-enabled conversations in constructing heritage identities in Europe.
I have a background in Heritage Studies, Art History and Art Curatorship and previous professional experience in the museum and art publishing sectors.

I lead the module Digital Cultural Communication and the Cultural Sector.
In the past I have contributed lectures and seminars to the Masters courses in Creative Arts Practice and in Museums and Galleries Studies.
