About
Originally trained as a bookseller, I then studied Information Science at the HES-SO University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Western Switzerland, Haute école de gestion de Genève (BSc and MSc), before earning a PhD in Digital Humanities from the University of Basel. I currently work as a Data Scientist at the Swiss Federal Archives.
I am particularly interested in ways of improving the digital preservation, dissemination and interoperability of cultural heritage objects and their associated metadata through the application of Linked Open Data. I also investigate digital practices from the perspective of Science and Technology Studies (STS), especially through the lens of the Actor-Network Theory (ANT).
I wrote my PhD thesis on Linked Open Usable Data (LOUD):
Linked Open Usable Data for Cultural Heritage: Perspectives on Community Practices and Semantic Interoperability
