Overview
I joined Cardiff University in 2021 as Lecturer in International Relations, with research expertise in transitional justice, international law, human rights, norms and knowledge production.
I completed my PhD in the School of Government and International Affairs at Durham University in 2022, where I also worked as a tutor. I also hold an MA in Human Rights from Central European University.
My doctoral research, for which I was awarded the Open Society Civil Society Scholar Award, investigated prevention of conflict repetition in Bosnia and Herzegovina. I have published articles and essays in, among others, the International Journal of Transitional Justice, International Criminal Law Review, and Conflict, Security and Development.
