Curriculum-Vitae
I am a master’s student in Political Science and Digital Humanities, with a professional background in education, civic advocacy, and community-based initiatives. My academic work focuses on economic inequality, political disaffection, and digital technology.
My current research uses RDF Linked Open Data to investigate how spatial and economic factors influence political engagement, building on earlier work that analyzed these dynamics through statistical and spatial methods. I am also exploring machine learning for my master’s thesis to assess how existing structural inequalities affect or disrupt political attitudes.
I bring a critical, interdisciplinary lens to computational research, emphasizing both technical competence and ethical reflection. I am particularly passionate about ensuring that digital innovation in the humanities remains socially grounded, inclusive, and critically informed by historical context and power dynamics.
