I studied law in Athens, and during my studies I was an active member of Amnesty International.
I work as a lawyer in Heraklion, Crete since 2002. As I was always interested in human rights law, during my career I have handled a lot of cases concerning refugees or immigrants.
I am a lawyer of the registry of the Asylum Service in Greece since November 2019. I represent the asylum seekers to the second instance of the procedure before the Independent Appeals Commitees.
I am also a member of the “Council of Immigrants and refugees’ Integration of the Municipality of Heraklion”. The purposes of the Council are to convene, and facilitate locals and immigrants- refugees to achieve a common understanding of immigrants-refugees’ complex roles in local communities; engage in candid discussions about the realities facing immigrants/refugees and receiving communities; and reach consensus about mutual responsibilities and shared community goals that can ensure the continued social and economic well-being of the region.
