About
I am an ontology engineer (she/her) with over 13 years of experience in linked data, semantic interoperability, and knowledge graph engineering across research, government, and industry. I currently work at TDCC-NES (Thematic Digital Competence Centre for the Natural & Engineering Sciences), where I support researchers in designing sustainable, standards-based semantic models and FAIR data workflows. My background combines deep technical expertise and data engineering with strong communication and advisory skills, enabling me to bridge research needs and robust, production-ready solutions.
Current Roles
- Ontology Engineer at TDCC-NES
- WG4 Use Cases & Applications Co-Lead, GOBLIN COST Action
- Industry Co-Chair, SEMANTiCS 2026
