About me
Prior to joining the Wikimedia Foundation I have worked as the Executive Manager of the Research Center for Information Law at the University of St.Gallen (Switzerland) and spent time as a Visiting Researcher at the Berkeley Law School and the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University.
I am interested in the Internet and how we can make it a better place for the benefit of society.
I am also interested in music, sailing, surfing, and snowboarding.
My work
As part of the Legal Team, I work mainly on our public policy strategy and its execution. For our policy efforts I also do community and public outreach. Moreover, I make sure Wikimedia is aware of global developments and trends that pose opportunities and threats to our mission from a regulation and policy side.
