Personal profile

Research interests

My main research interest is cultural heritage in the ditigal age, my dissertation examined the use of digital libraries, the digital paraphernalia that belong to school-life, and youth's expressions of their own cultures as diverse forms of past presencing and heritage making in everyday school situations. I use ethnographic methods such as interviews and participant observation. I have a background in media studies and I am currently affiliated to digital humanities and DARIAH-FI
