As a scholar positioned between the humanities and social sciences, I strive to understand how education and technology can help to confront the pertinent social issues of our current age.

Currently I work at NOLAI, researching the pedagogical implications of working with AI in education. In my PhD thesis I researched how young people create their own alternative ways of learning on YouTube, Twitch and TikTok.

In my research on education and technology I am always driven to understand the underlying structures for learning in which I center young people themselves. Which pedagogical structures steer implicitly and explicitly young people's learning? To answer such questions I use mostly qualitative methods, such as ethnography and interviews.
