Experience and background

I am a lawyer and hold a ph.d. in criminal law. Currently, I write a monograph on criminal procedure together with other authors. In addition, I research topics like the right to privacy, professionals’ duty of confidentiality, restorative justice and young offenders. From 2017 to 2019, I am a member of a commission appointed by the Government, tasked with drafting a new Act on education. I participate in the research group The Police in the Digital Society, and contributed to an anthology published in 2019.
