AI regulation is being written today, and I help organizations navigate it.
As an AI Governance & Compliance Research Intern at IntegrityStudio.ai, I develop cross-border compliance frameworks for enterprise LLM deployments. My foundation in International and European Law (University of Groningen) combined with specialized training in International Commercial Arbitration (Stockholm University) positions me at the intersection of AI governance, dispute resolution, and regulatory compliance.
What I bring: Quadrilingual legal analysis (German, Spanish, English, French) with direct access to primary regulatory sources across EU member states.
Focus Areas
AI Governance & The EU AI Act
The legal frameworks governing AI are being written now, and I want to help shape them. My coursework on the EU AI Act revealed how profoundly AI will transform legal practice, from contract analysis to dispute resolution. This is not a distant future; the AAA-ICDR launched its first AI arbitrator in November 2025, and the ICC has established a Task Force examining AI in arbitration proceedings.
AI in Dispute Resolution
International arbitration is at an inflection point. The launch of AI-native arbitrators, AI-assisted document review, and predictive analytics tools raises fundamental questions about due process, transparency, and enforceability. My legal training provides the procedural foundation to analyze these questions rigorously.
Cross-Border Compliance
Legal analysis of AI regulation cannot rely solely on English-language sources. The German Bundestag, Spanish Cortes, and French Assemblée nationale are each shaping how the EU AI Act applies domestically. I can access these primary sources directly, providing analysis that captures nuances lost in translation.

Career Vision
I want to build a career at the intersection of international dispute resolution and AI governance. My target paths include roles at arbitral institutions like the ICC, LCIA, or SCC, policy organizations such as the European Commission’s AI Office or IAPS, and AI companies with dedicated governance functions like OpenAI or Jus Mundi.
Whether advising companies on compliance, helping arbitral institutions adapt to technological change, or contributing to policy development, I see legal expertise as essential to ensuring AI benefits society broadly.
