About me

I study how AI systems impact agency and the governance of AI, bridging philosophy, policy, and technical perspectives.

I am Assistant Professor for Ethics of Technology at Utrecht University and a Research Affiliate at the University of Oxford’s Institute for Ethics in AI. Previously, I worked as a Research Fellow at the Institute for Ethics in AI and was a Junior Research Fellow at Jesus College, Oxford. I was a member of the Humanities Cultural Programme Steering Committee and have worked as an Ethics Advisor for Digital Catapult.

My main research focus is on autonomy and the ethics of automated decision-making, though I am also interested in the governance of AI more broadly. Check out my recent work on

I currently teach the Data Ethics module for Data Science Master students at Utrecht University and the Ethics of Technology module for Bachelors. I furthermore frequently teach the Governance of AI for the Oxford EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Autonomous and Intelligent Machines and Systems.

I hold a DPhil in Philosophy and an MSt in Philosophy of Physics from the University of Oxford as well as a Master’s and Bachelor’s degree in Physics from Freie Universität Berlin. I also hold a Certificate for Data Science and AI from LeWagon.
