Research interests

My research focuses on human rights law across different fields. This includes business and human rights; environment and human rights; extraterritoriality and transnationality; the impact of human rights on private law litigation and corporate law. My most significant publication is my book Business and Human Rights: The Obligations of the European Home States (Hart Publishing, 2020). I have also published numerous articles, including in the Oxford Journal of Legal Studies (OUP) Human Rights Law Review (OUP) and the Business and Human Rights Journal (CUP). In 2022, I  had the honour to be a TedX Speaker. Currently, I am the principal investigator in the research project Imperialism, Business & Human Rights funded by a generous Starter Grant, awarded by the Minister of Education, Culture, and Science (OC&W), Government of the Netherlands.

I am an Assistant Professor of Human Rights Law at the Department of Public Law and Governance. Prior to joining Tilburg Law School, I was an LSE postdoctoral fellow at the London School of Economics and Political Science and a Senior Research Fellow at the Institute for Business Ethics at the University of St. Gallen (the holder of a Basic Research Fund). I was also a consultant for the British Academy Future of the Corporation Programme. I studied law at the University of Milan, Harvard Law School (LLM) and Maastricht Law School (PhD). During my PhD, I was a research fellow at the Max Planck Institute Luxembourg and a visiting research fellow at the Max Planck Institute Heidelberg and the University of Tel Aviv Global Trust Project. I was a visiting professor at FGV Direito Sao Paulo in Brasil, and the University of Los Andes in Bogotá Colombia.
