My research focuses on the societal impact of opaque and influencial platforms and their algorithms.
I work as Head of Research and Co-Founder at AI Forensics (and previously at Tracking Exposed).
I am also a Ph.D. candidate at the AI and Data for Society (AID4So) research group at the Internet Interdisciplinary Institute (IN3) in Barcelona.
I investigate platform accountability and conducts algorithm audits, exploring how digital systems shape society and democracy. My research translates into media investigations, litigation, and academic publications that are redefining how Big Tech is held accountable in Europe and globally.
For me, auditing algorithms is not just a technical exercise, it is a democratic imperative. By uncovering how opaque digital infrastructures operate, I advocates for transparency, fairness, and user rights in the digital age. My vision is to ensure that technology serves people and societies, not just corporate interests.
Research is a collective effort. Let me know if we can do something together.
Shoot me a message or see you around in BCN.
