Hello! I research how users interact with technology and how inequalities impact those interactions, making them vulnerable. I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Human-Media Interaction Group at the University of Twente. My current research understands the experiences of user vulnerability towards manipulative designs to define interventions that empower users, improve the design of interfaces and, ultimately, inform policymaking. I draw on perspectives from critical human-computer interaction, socio-digital inequalities and critical design. I have further research interests and experience in usable privacy and security, and the societal impact of technology.

I hold a PhD from the University of Luxembourg and an MSc in Media and Communications Governance from the London School of Economics and Political Science. Prior to my academic career, I worked for five years as a cybersecurity and privacy consultant in different sectors -telecommunications, banking and insurance, among others.

I am an active member of different SIGCHI communities and conferences (e.g. DIS, CHI). I work with civil society groups to defend Digital Rights. I am a former board member of the Internet Society Spanish Chapter and Interferencias, with whom I conducted research and activism for a better digital world. I collaborate with several initiatives, here you can see the response to the Spanish Digital Rights Chart with Trackula Association and the initiative about the European Copyright Directive application in Spain with Wikimedia. I also co-authored a book about the socio-technical aspects of electronic voting.
