 I am a third year SJD student working on Bankruptcy Law and Private Law Theory. My main project is focused on the normative foundations of personal bankruptcy law in the U.S. and Canadian legal orders. I also research on corporate bankruptcy especially in the U.S., currently working on mega-bankruptcy case-studies, the intersection of mass tort litigation and bankruptcy, and third-party releases.

 I hold an LL.M. in Legal Theory from NYU School of Law, having written a thesis on corporate asset partitioning. I studied for my LL.B. in Greece and France.

I am a lawyer in Greece and I spend some time lawyering in Greek and E.U. law, especially on restructuring consultation.
