Highest degree: Doctorate
Degree name: Artificial Intelligence
Area of expertise: Engineering and technology
Skills: Currently working on how technology supports older adults living independently at home, for example through connecting older adults through digital means and combat chronic loneliness. Also working on an awareness tool that would help older adults make decisions about their future living situation.



Additionally I'm looking into ways how technologies can be incorporated in social work for professionals, from different perspectives: a training tool or a tool for increasing working methodically.
