About
Bridging law, regulation and technology
I'm a legal and regulatory analyst working across the EU's digital and financial rulebook, from crypto-asset regulation under MiCA to data protection, AI governance and platform law. My focus is translating complex regulatory frameworks into clear, practical guidance for financial institutions, technology companies and regulators.

What my trajectory demonstrates
Rather than listing soft skills, here is what the work itself shows. Select a quality to see the evidence behind it.
Discipline & Consistency
Completing a Bachelor's in European and International Law on schedule, then moving directly into an LL.M. in Law and Technology while also delivering a live client project for JTC, shows consistency sustained over years rather than isolated effort. The same pattern holds outside law: five years of freelance work through YoungOnes, without a single missed shift.
