I am an Assistant Professor of Didactics, specialising in Mathematics Education. I completed a BSc in Physics and a MSc in Mathematics for Education at the University of Crete, Greece. Following that I completed a PhD in Mathematics Education at the Department of Mathematics Education in Loughborough University, UK. During my time in the UK I worked as an Associate for the Further Mathematics Support Program (Mathematics Education Innovation Charity, UK).

After finishing my PhD studies I worked as an Adjunct Lecturer in various Universities in Greece (Department of Mathematics & Applied Mathematics - University of Crete, Department of Electronic Engineering - Hellenic Mediterranean University) and as a Collaborating Researcher at the Socio-Educational Research and Innovation Group located at the Institute of Applied and Computational Mathematics (FORTH-Hellas). In 2022, I joined the Department of Primary Education at the University of Crete (Greece) as an Adjunct Lecturer and in 202 I was appointed Assistant Professor.

While my earlier work was informed by Activity Theory, my current research is grounded in Cultural-historical Theory, with a focus on the formation and development of concepts. I am also particularly interested in the design of didactical approaches that  foster generalisation and abstraction in the classroom.
