I am a researcher at the Institute of International Relations Prague. My research interests include China, political repression, and digital authoritarianism. From September 2026 to September 2028, I am based at the Stockholm Center for Global Asia at Stockholm University for a two-year postdoctoral research stay funded by the Czech Science Foundation (GAČR)
I earned a PhD in 2022 at the Prague University of Economics and Business, focusing on digital authoritarianism, and a master’s degree in Political Science with a minor in China Studies from the same university. I studied Chinese at Beijing Language and Culture University and Zhejiang University, and Russian at the Far East Federal University in Vladivostok.
From September to December 2025, I conducted postdoctoral research as a fellow at the Taiwan Foundation for Democracy in Taipei.
I taught courses on China’s global influence and the social impacts of modern media at the Czech Technical University in Prague, and political science courses at the Prague University of Economics and Business.
