Since April 2025, I’ve been a co-design researcher for the Smart Data Donation Service (SDDS). My work focuses on data empowerment, helping citizens understand their data rights & safely share smart data for the public good. Link to preprint below! 👇 papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

To do this, I use participatory workshops & creative facilitation to ensure the service’s tools and governance are ethical & inclusive. My ultimate goal is to give donors a meaningful voice in shaping how their data is used in research. #DataDonation #CoDesign #DataEmpowerment #SmartData
