CV

  • After obtaining a Master's in Gender Studies from the University of Geneva, I worked as a research assistant on various projects related to artistic work – focusing on the working conditions and employment of musicians, as well as the professional integration of jazz graduates – and on sexual violence.
    In September 2024, I began a PhD (Doc.CH). As part of my dissertation, I am focusing platform work in the cleaning sector in Switzerland, under the supervision of Professors Isabelle Zinn (BFH) and Nicky Le Feuvre (UNIL).
    My research interests focus on work and how it is shaped by social relations of gender, race, and class.
