Welcome and thanks for visiting!

I'm a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Political Science at the University of Zurich.

My research studies how citizens perceive and respond to online contested political discourse, why that is, and how it changes. To do so, I use computational methods, causal inference, and experiments.

I hold a PhD in Social Data Science from Oxford University (2025).
