Biography
I work as a doctoral candidate and teach law of obligations. I am involved in a research project called Algorithmic Agencies and Law (AALAW) which focuses on legal questions that algorithmic decision-making will raise. I am also a member of the Baltic Area Legal Studies (BALEX) steering group. Before my academic career, I worked as a specialist in an insurance company.
Research
I am currently working on my doctoral dissertation that discusses how the proliferation of robotics may affect the fundamental premises of tort law. The study focuses especially on questions that autonomous technologies and algorithmic decision-making may raise.
