What I'm looking for

I seek research or policy roles applying legal psychology to eyewitness evidence, whistleblowing procedures, and interdisciplinary projects in collaborative, applied environments.

I am a Master's student in Legal Psychology at Maastricht University, combining law, criminology and psychology to investigate human behaviour in legal contexts. I have led and contributed to research projects such as an internship on Face Familiarity and its link to eyewitness testimony, and co-authored a policy report proposing a whistleblowing framework for OLAF.

My background includes a BA in Psychology from Université de Lausanne with a research thesis on substance use among students, international academic exchanges, language study in Korea, and versatile event and retail roles across Europe and Asia. I bring strong analytical, organizational and cross-cultural communication skills, and a disciplined, proactive work ethic to applied research and policy-focused roles.
