His academic interests lie at the intersection of criminal law and criminal procedural law. He focuses on issues around legitimacy, procedural justice, criminal forbearance and legal philosophy. He currently intends to study whether voluntary legal-compliance might be influenced by the way in which prosecutorial offices in different countries decide and communicate which laws to enforce and which ones not to.
