Primary research areas

Human AI co-creation

How do workers and creatives use AI to improve their daily proficiency, enrich their creative process, and reach a broader audience? And how can we as humans safeguard our authenticity and agency if we must rely on AI in our daily workflow?

Digital, Environmental, and Social Sustainability

How do companies, investors, and stakeholders utilize the increasing abundance of ESG data to make responsible business decisions? Are worldwide sustainability reporting standards collecting the right data in the right format for protecting the environment?

Labor market in the post-AI era

How has the ascent of AI impacted the skilled labor market? Will AI replace more and more tech jobs, or will it create more job opportunities in the humanities and the arts? How do skilled workers navigate an uncertain labor market?

Exploring human-AI co-creation through creatively authentic and socially sustainable pathways

I study the human-AI co-creation process through the lens of the creative industry, focusing on independent freelance creatives who use AI to boost productivity and enrich creativity.


The introduction of GenAI has shaken up both creative workflows and the way labour markets are organised. My research aims to amplify the voices of niche and community groups who assert their agency by adapting, surviving, and thriving in an ever-changing digital landscape.


Throughout my professional experience as a data analyst in the ESG space and my lifelong passion as a freelance artist, GenAI was the throughline that defined my technical and artistic skill sets. And my research provides a perfect canvas to tell the story of the creative community through data.
