Profile

I am currently working on my PhD which seeks to explore the extent to which child sexual abuse is normalised in Romanian society. Prior to my PhD course, I completed an MA in International Criminology and a BA in Criminology at the University of Sheffield. During my studies, I developed an interest towards research areas such as sexual abuse and intimate partner violence.
