I am a postdoctoral researcher at Ghent University, working between organizational theory and information systems. My research focuses on AI governance in professional service firms, and on how emerging technologies are understood, structured, and governed over time. I work primarily through engaged research.
Designing and Diagnosing Digital
My work straddles two intellectual traditions. Each asks a different kind of question. Most useful questions ask for both. The work lives in the seam between them.
Designing
Building things that intervene rather than describe. Design science, enterprise architecture, business informatics. Models that direct what could be made rather than theorize what already exists.
Diagnosing
Reading what is already in motion. Qualitative fieldwork and process studies of how organizations, fields, and institutions take shape around emerging technologies. Watching what happens between a technology’s arrival and its ordinariness.
Where I work
Postdoctoral researcher at Ghent University‘s Faculty of Economics and Business, research group on business informatics. Teaching Enterprise Architecture (master-level, 250+ students) and IT Management in fall semesters.
Funded research: an Interreg Europe project on the sharing economy with qualitative fieldwork across seven European countries, and ongoing work on the manufacturing industry via the CVAMO lab at Flanders Make.
The position generously leaves room for an independent line of work on AI governance, hype dynamics, and emerging technology in professional service firms.
