About:

Data protection nerd and legal design enthusiast. I am a qualified lawyer in Athens, currently working in Brussels as a Blue book trainee at the EDPS (DPO team). Having already seen through data protection 'lenses' how it is to work at a privacy consulting firm and at a boutique IT law firm in London, at a data protection research centre in Switzerland, at a big 4 law firm in Athens and at a national data protection authority, I look forward to my next privacy adventure!
